Review: Well made - I use this pump for my whole house pulling from a 5000 gal rain water harvest system. It has performed very well and meets all my needs can run shower sink and washing machine at the same time without flow problems great water pressure holding at 40-45 psi. This pump will need a back-flow valve to hold your prime. The pump is cast iron, that being said if your over tighten your water intake connection you can split the metal. Make sure to follow the directions and use thread seal tape liberally in lieu of over tightening and you should have a leak free connection. Overall great pump.
Review: It arrived and work perfect as per description - It arrived and work perfect as per description. It comes preassembled, what makes easy the installation. It was a turn key project to make it work, no problems . Components quality is very good ! Cant beat the value payback for the price.! I would buy it again. New update : I am updating my review today August 27,2025 …… because it deserves to mention that the system still working fine after so many years in service!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does this pump require a foot valve?**
A: My well has a foot/check valve located at 20 ft in order to hold prime.

**Q: What is the Max head on this system?**
A: It’s about 25 feet.

**Q: Can this pump be plugged into a Honda 2200i generator when on 115 volts?**
A: Thank you for your interest in Red Lion products.  No, this will not work with a Honda 2200i.  According to the specs found online, the max output for the general is 2200 Watts and it's rated for 1800 Watts.  This pump produces 2680 Watts.  If you have a larger generator, another thing to consider is that this pump does not come with a plug, so you would have to purchase and attach the plug to the unit.  If you require further information, please contact our Technical Support line at 1.888.885.9254.

**Q: can this be used for potable water?**
A: Yes, I have this pump and use it for potable water to supply both my cabin and camper during the summer months. Since I use it seasonally I run a bleach treatment at the beginning of the summer season to ensure that the pump is clean.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to install, appears to function well.
*by B***K on July 27, 2022*

Arrived quickly and was easy to install. Used to pump lake water to a rustic cabin. Provides very good water pressure to the cabin which is 60 feet uphill of the lake. Pump is one month old and time will tell if it will last. So far so good, it is replaces a Gould pump which lasted over forty years but a new Gould cost 4 times as much as this pump. Pump mount on top of bladder tank is pretty flimsy and rocks a bit when the pump turns on. The pump is half the weight of the pump it replaced, if it lasts half as long, I will be very satisfied.
