[edit] Don't like Harbor Freight Pumps!

I've gone through two of these pumps. It doesn't take long for the advantage of cheap price to go away if you have to keep replacing them!

I think the problem is that they are not intended for pumping hot fluids.

I have used Taco and Grundfoss pumps, and find that for twice the price, they are well worth it! For one: they are designed for hydronic heating applications, and so work great with hot oil. For another, the plumbing is much simpler, because they mount via standard manifold connectors. (Of course, since they are more reliable, this is not so important, but it is a royal PITA to change out a Harbor Freight pump in comparison.) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jan Steinman (talk • contribs) 15:50, 24 January 2011
