If your pump will be unaended, consider installing a float that
automatically shuts off the pump when the water level becomes
too low, then restarts it as the level rises. is prevents damage to
the seal and prevents premature motor failure.
In addition to pump components that keep damage from oc-
curring, there are others that make maintenance faster and easier
on the jobsite. For example, some pumps offer access to their
interiors with the removal of just a few bolts rather than numerous
ones. Some pumps also don't require users to remove additional
components, such as the seal, to access the interior. For even faster
maintenance on the jobsite, many manufacturers offer a complete
replacement package that includes a seal, sha, and impeller, and
everything users need to install them. Also, consider where you
can get parts and how long you might have to wait for them.

Double mechanical seals provide a consistent, watertight seal and play an
important role in protecting the pump's internal components.
