SEAFLO53-Series DC Diaphragm Water Pump – 7.0 GPM, 60 PSI, 12V | Heavy-Duty, Self-Priming, Bypass with Pressure Switch, Continuous Duty, 4-Year Warranty

I have a solar powered setup that takes water from a 1,000 gallon tank that then uses this pump and another to pressurize a small 44 gal pressure tank to then supplies the water for two houses on my property. I wasn't sure this was going to work but knew I didn't want to use an A/C booster pump with an inverter. So this system uses a 12v LifePO4 battery with solar and a standard well pressure switch to kick the pumps on an off. I believe most problems people have with this pump is related to the included pressure switch so I bypassed it and use a standard well switch which is much more robust. I am using this pump in parallel with another smaller Seaflo pump (55 Series 5.5gpm 60psi). This larger pump (53 Series 7.0gpm 60 psi) is strong and is continuing to pump good where the smaller pump is starting to leak and the GPM seems to have reduced. To be fair the larger pump is advertised as "continuous" duty and these pumps are normally used in RV setups that aren't as demanding. I plan to replace the smaller pump with this larger pump and then I will then have two 7.0gpm pumps in parallel which will make this system even better. The two current pumps can usually keep up with all household demands, even multiple showers running while doing laundry. They only struggle if we are doing laundry and then also using multiple hoses around the house to water plants. Just to be clear these are not being used with sprinklers but all other household demands. My sprinkler are running off my well pump system. This system has allowed me to run my well pump less often and also gives me a few hundred gallons of water that can be used even during power outages. Like I said, I wasn't sure this was going to work by two years later and this little pump is still going strong.

Installed pump with now leaks anywhere. 1000 water tank input / accumulator tank 20 gal outlet; started fine and cutoff fine. Next morngin found my 12v battery dead and accumulator tank full pressure 60psi. Got another battery and the pump ran and ran and never cut off after reaching 60psi...it leveled off around 70psi but still ran. I returned the pump after 1 day use. I suspect either the pressure switch or the diaphragm...regardless, it is garbage

I love it. The on-demand pump is perfect delivering water from my 420 gallon rain water barrel. Once the leaks are dealt with, the relay switch slows and shuts down the pump once it's up to pressure. Itprimed very well. This would be good for RV and off-grid 12V applications for on-demand water. When the pump is running, it's actually much more quiet than another 7 gal/min pump that I had. I simply have a small solar panel attached through a charge controller to a deep cycle battery to charge it when not in use and I had spare battery clamps which I spliced on. It does just come with 2 wires; so, you'll need to find a way to attach it to the power supply.Note that the fittings are for pipes. Thus, adapters are needed to use garden hoses and I used teflon tape to ensure the seals. The plastic is soft so you have to be careful when adding the metal adaptors.I ordered these which worked for garden hoses:outlet to garden hose:Anderson Metals Brass Garden Hose Fitting, Connector, 3/4" Male Hose ID x 1/2" Female Pipehttps://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FPAPM8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1garden hose to inlet:Anderson Metals Brass Garden Hose Fitting, Connector, 3/4" Female Hose ID x 1/2" Female Pipehttps://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B000JQJZLU/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1There are different manufacturers of the connetors that you can choose from. The video sounds louder than it does in real life.The pressure is good and the flow rate is high enough to not to be waiting all day to fill containers. I do believe this higher flow rate is best relative to more popular products of lower flow rates.

Has done an excellent job for my parents spray rig (ATV pull behind sprayer). I have a regulator on the manifold and it holds at exactly the 60 psi rating. Was simple to wire in. I used a 30 amp switch with a fuse able in line 20 amp fuse the amp max is I believe 28. Awesome pump!!

Ran well with decent pressure. Then Blew my water heater apart and pump housing cracked in less than a year. Pressure shutoff malfunction or something Not impressed
