That is a good Idea, I think I’ll do that too.

When the pump runs so doe the pilot light.

Thanks for the warning. My Shurflo is quite loud. I’d like to find a quieter pump that has a smallish footprint. Let us know how you make out.

To report on the Marco, I loved the pump, I just didn’t like that it quit pulling water by September. A little over 3 months. They did eventually take it back, after several push-ups. I was hesitant about Italian Engineering, but it was a beautiful little Gear Pump, mostly SS,– ran quietly, smoothly, nice little LED’s to let you know what was going on, , small footprint, would shut off if it sensed no water, - As near as I could figure, the gears simply wore a little, enough to not create the suction to pull water up a meter. I am not real excited with the Flojet or Jabsco pumps I have used, and the ShurFlos just seem so – so. Has anyone had any experience with the Johnson (5.0GPM Flow MasterPart #: 10-13329-104) ? This is a variable speed/Volume, like the Marco, but not gear driven. It is not all that expensive, which for some reason makes me suspicious.
