It's incredibly simple to install, and since it threads directly into a standard fitting, this pump fits into almost any Using a blue square water jug with a threaded cap, I made my project. It took me two bushings to adjust the fit, but it appears to be solid. Despite its ease of use, the faucet has a downside. Through the base plate, you need to screw the counter to it. Since it doesn't have a collar nut to secure it from underneath, it is not threaded on the bottom. My only option was to drill through my tile countertop to hold it in place. There is another issue with the faucet It faces the sink at a very shallow angle. For boat faucets and RV faucets, it seems to be this way most of the time.
The faucet and pump are built to last, and they have a good build quality I like the way it works. Using the fitting on my sailboat, I screwed the pump straight into the water tank and then hooked it up to my sailing pump. Shortly before the faucet, I ran a hose straight to it. did not give it five stars is that there is a lot of flow This is a fixed, unadjustable and unusable chair! When you are filling up a pot or a glass of water, it works great. There is no unnecessary use of water. It pumps more than a gallon of water a minute at a fixed speed when you wash your hands. I only have an 11 gallon tank and this pump pumps over one gallon of water a minute. While I was buying it, I knew Since the price was so low and the installation process was so simple, I decided to go for it. Think about the flow rate of your application, however.
In order to get the pump to pump, water must be above it, and the only way to do that was to raise the water high enough for the sheer gravity of the water to basically force the water through the facet without the pump being turned Thus, it would have been a lot better to simply lift the water up whenever I wanted to see the water flowing through the faucet, as the pump was nothing but a waste of time. There's no way this sort of pump is strong enough to pump water from anywhere in the cabin as it is intended for supplying water from a "galley water pump", so it is better to spend an extra 50 dollars on a better pump and install it.
There should be a little more downward force on the faucet, but the stream isn't very strong so the water doesn't splash as much. set it up in a van so there was running water in the vehicle, and it worked great.
It is useless. Don't forget to read the fine print before you place your order. If the pump is below or at the same height as the water tank, it must be installed at the lower end. I didn't do any lift and I didn't prime. The program wouldn't start after it had been installed. As I tried to figure out what I had done wrong, I realized I had done something It was only when I bought the ridiculous pump that I made a mistake.
If you need to prime the machine, but the power is just two bare wires, it works just fine. There should be an option to plug it in, or to connect it to a usb port or something else.
As far as everything in the kit is working, I hope the pump continues to operate properly, as it seemed cheaply built, but so far everything seems to work well.
I like how it works.
