2 pumps in less than 2 years?

Folks, if your terminal fitting are loose enough that "jiggling" makes them work. Maybe try crimping on new terminals spades. Use a bit of dielectric grease...give them a gentle squeeze after connecting.

When terminals are loose...they may spark a bit over the air gap. This oxidizes the connection. Oxides don't conduct so well.

Replacing the pump? If the terminals are the issue...the problem will follow.

I have had the Remco pump mounted horizontally for a couple of years now. Easy plug & play.

I prefer not use up my wet bay space as that area is where my sanicon hose goes nicely.

It says if possible. I would assume that to mean that if it’s not possible, for whatever reason the owner/installer may determine, then a wall installation is acceptable.

I have the Remco 55AQUAJET-ARV. I have had no issues with respect to excessive water pressure. I highly recommend the pump. Variable speed pump is so much better than the Shurflo with the pressure switch.

I have been reading comments from folks that have installed the Remco and claim the pump runs at a much higher pressure than 75psi.
Not sure if they purchased the wrong model of Remco but they seem to specify the RV model.
The DP water system may be designed with higher tolerance to pressure than my CanyonStar. The Shurflow installed is a bit of a wimp, struggling with two or more water outlets open but will run continuously for 20 minutes without getting hot.

I've heard references to that, but I'm not sure any of them were first hand. There was also a post on the other forum the other day where someone had originally stated the same but then corrected himself as the pump being he referenced was not the Aquajet but some other pump whose name also starts with a A.

I think the statement about the high pressure is perhaps "fake news". Of all the folks that have posted about replacing their water pump with the Remco Aquajet, I don't recall any of them having any high pressure issues. The pump works great! My 2¢ worth.

The Remco 55 Aquajet ARV arrived today and I got it installed in 30m. Very simple plug and play.

i did have an issue getting the pump to stop when there was nothing calling for water. Called Remco and they transferred me to someone who wasn’t available at the moment. I left a message and he called me back 2 minutes later.

He said I just needed to let the pump run as it purged air from the line, so I did. It ran for a solid 5 minutes but eventually shut off.

water pressure is great and no drop off when another fixture is in use.

great recommendation @Neal . Maybe get these white labeled and add them to the RVF Swag!

Reviews are showing that the pump is too powerful for RV plumbing - cut off is 100-140 psi.

It’s 65psi

You could have asked here, both @redbaron and I are aware that air in the system will do that We are Remco non-certified technicians

Glad you got it, it is a great pump, I love mine. I didn't even hook up city water today as I enjoy the pump that much!
