Flotec FP217-811 Parts2O Pentek Heavy Duty Submersible Well Pump Control Box, 230 V, 3/4 Hp, No 4

When you have problems with a deep well it will be expensive. Just having the pro lift the pump anywhere from a hundred feet to a thousand feet will cost money. If you can make voltage and resistance measurements and you know how to work in electrical systems you may find that the problem is in the control box for the pump which will be someplace in your basement and now down the well.In my case the voltage and resistance tests looked okay (resistance was close but not exact) so I replaced the box. Our pump now works.That is exactly what I wanted. I had the sort of problem that replacing the box should fix, and this box did fix it. Thanks.

This the the standard control box for 3/4 hp submersible pumps. It was an easy and cheap fix for my well pump not operating and saved further troubleshooting and pulling the pump.

I purchased this control box to operate my newly replaced 3/4 hp submersible well pump. The pump worked fine and held pressure as expected. The next morning I had zero water pressure and the pump would not run. I found some kind of fluid leaking out of the controller box, and no power coming from the box. Hopefully it didn't damage the pump itself. I am waiting to see if the 1 year warranty will get it replaced.

Excellent product. It replaced the old Franklin box I had as if they had come off the same assembly line!

I thought I was buying a Flotec pump controller, but nowhere on the box does it indicate it’s from or made by Flotec. It’s just a generic controller. Now am I worried? No. It’s rated for the pump I have and appears to be about as robust as any quality controller I’ve had or looked at. Time will tell.

Works

Works great, good value

If you ever had to deal with a bad control box, you know that there is no good way measure it to see if it bad. It was easier to just order one and replace the old one. Pump is working again.
