I don't know anything about this make of pump so can't comment on that.

However, the pump is only held on with 2 of the 4 mounting holes - hence I question assembly quality, as I don't believe the pump mounting will last long without breaking due to vibration.

Pump has no inline filter.

A water proof box is not a good advert. If one of the pipes starts to leak then the box will fill up with water - don't laugh, it happened to me with a different pump box.

If the pump has to be mounted to one side, then the box is too small to hold all the inards.

Would I buy it? NO!

Looks superb to me!

I've used a pump box since I started over 8 years ago. Plug & play & very easy to remove in winter.

Can't comment on the pump itself as I don't recognize it. It would be easy to fit an inline strainer (if it's not got one) & the mounting would be fine, mine only has ONE fixing & in all this time I've never had it work loose or be an issue at all.

The water proof box will have a small hole drilled in the bottom so it would drain in the event of any leak.

Looks good to me if the pump stands up.

thanks, do i have to add a pump controller like yours to use it?

[Spruce]

I had a pump box on my trailer when I first started 8 years ago.

It had a Shurflo pump, bypass valve and on/off switch in the box.

I modified it by removing everything except the pump (replaced the pump) and the switch. I put an analogue Varistream in it as well as an inlet filter - and drilled a large drain hole in the bottom. The controller was set at the normal rate we would mostly use and because it was analogue I switch the pump on and off with the toggle switch.

I think Winprocleans box is excellent, albeit much more expense to build. A decent Shurflo pump, Varistream and inlet strainer are available from Daqua as a kit for 142.50 from ebay.

I would also add a 10 amp on/off switch to isolate the battery from the varistream at the end of the day.

Plus an electrical enclosure - ask Winproclean to measure his as I don't have mine any longer. 

A couple of lengths of 1/2" reinforced plastic hose, hose clips and an electrical connector will get you going.

I personally don't see the need to incorporate a remote on/off switch TBH. Control the flow with a tap or Aquadapter.

heres mine it was expensive though!!

I thought it had a remote flow controller?

The small black box you see on mine is a trip/isolator switch like Spruce has advised.

Don't get me wrong, you could build a much better one but I think for £100 if you didn't want the hassle of doing so then it's definitely worth a punt IMO. You could build one for £200.

Is that including battery?

can do, but just to let you know this isnt good for a van system, as its only a backpack pump so only good for a short amount of hose, about 10-15metres
