Product Questions

Can this pump be setup to be used with a variable speed switch, or is it just on full power and then off?
Question by: Chad Volkers on Jul 10, 2023, 11:13 PM
Hey there,
Thank you for reaching out to us. It is full power and would be easier to adjusted with a plumbing in gate valve.

Please let me know if you need anything further and take care!
