Good pump but subject to CA buildup

Installation and Operation	The pump is basically just plug and play. Maintenance is not too bad assuming you can separate the impeller from the shaft. The pump has a ceramic shaft that is both expensive and brittle. One wrong twist and it snaps. To clean the pump, I use a mix of vinegar and muratic acid (mostly vinegar)
Performance vs. Expectations	Yes. It's a quality pump.
Value for money	I would say that it will run for a long time. Outside of shafts and one impeller all mine (total 5) are operational. My oldest is 4 years.
Customer Support	I did talk with them and received adequate support. Like most, service is available only during business hours and it takes a little work to get to the right guy.

Liked about it	Build quality is good, flow(output) is good and energy use (heat) . If setup properly, this is also a very reliable pump.
Didn't like	I wish some of the parts (like shafts) were not half the cost of the pump.

Overall rating:		3.5
Overall satisfaction:		3.0
Would consider buying it again:		4.0

Nice and quiet

General

These pumps are great. I am running two of them to feed my two C-Skim 1200 Protein skimmers and I love them. they are reliable and super super quiet. I would not trade them for anything. You wont be disappointed.
