I installed a new water pump end of last year. It was very similar in GPM to the one it replaced (bigger than the original pump).
I went with this one from
Amazon..
Shurflo 5059-1310-D011 5.3 GPM Automatic Demand 12VDC Diaphragm Pump with 60 PSI Built-In Pressure Switch, Viton valves, Self-Priming & 1/2" NPTF Port
We have only been out once since install (and I didn't test when installed in November), but the pump does a short cycle several times per minute. The other issue is that when the pump cycles, it causes the lights in the trailer to dim (doesn't matter if I have electric or just running on 12 volt). Finally, the water pipes seem to vibrate when it pumps as well.
Thoughts on why it is doing this? Bad pump? Bad install? Too much pump?
The trailer has 2 12 volt deep cycle batteries. There is no water leak. I can leave the pump on for days at a time, sitting in my garage with concrete floor, and I never have any water under it.
