Yearly Maintenance Recommended
Once a year it's time to clean your pump. Algae and particle will accumulate in the pump and begin to reduce it's performance.
We like to use the Jaebo Pumps because they have a water lubricated floating rotor that is simple and reliable. Also it is less likely to burn out when it runs dry.
Also the pumps are quite simple to pop apart and clean up.
