Have anyone had the same issues? I'm Just curious. I have 3 of these and have been through a pair of shafts per pump in less than a year. Even with regular once a month breakdown and cleaning. Flow is great with these pumps but to me not worth the hassle. Shafts are $50 bucks and have been out of stock for a while. Time to dust off the "bulletproof" Tunze 6105's. Hell I have Dinosaur 6100's in my vault from early 2000's that will perform many more years on the OG Impeller shafts... Shit now days is like buying a cheap printer and buying stock in the company for print cartridges. LOL

That looks bad. I’m sure they has happened to others. If under a year, you should have warranty on them. That being said, make sure to run some kind of metal absorbing media and send out an icp.

I just checked my invoices for these pumps and I was mistaken. They were purchased 11/11/21 so possibly a couple weeks out of warranty. I sent a message to Coralvue on their website months ago but I haven't heard back and I got busy so I didn't follow up. No big deal. This is not a rant post. Just wanted to see if I was the only one with this misfortune. Thanks for the advise on the metal absorbing media and icp test. Sounds like a good thing to do.

Won’t hurt anything.

CoralVue no longer does customer service for the line as the distribution has gone to BRS/ Apeture. One would have to contact Maxsepct directly or BRS for warranty and or parts/
I just got off the phone with BRS and they have no parts until next month or first of the year. They said the are still at the port. Don't know if that's port of china or u.s. Oh well in the hoarding box they go..
