Hallmark Industries MA0419X-12A Deep Well Submersible Pump, 2 HP, 230V, 35 Gpm, 420 feet, Stainless Steel

Works perfect!!

Pump has been running perfectly for over 2 years. Feeding 3 houses, 260 feet deep, with NO check valve at the pump (just one at the top). The construction is excellent. After reading some negative reviews when I purchased it, I invested in some additional quality electrical supplies and took my time to make sure every connection was solid and absolutely sealed. I suspected it at the time, but after two years with zero issues I'm convinced the number one issue with this pump is people misunderstanding and/or doing a poor job with the wiring. Take your time! Be absolutely sure every connection is rock solid, sealed with adhesive lined shrink tubing, and then use PVC pipe wrap tape to secure all your wiring to the bottom of your piping so they won't wiggle and risk coming loose. And use a check valve at the pump. I didn't because I couldn't get one in time and needed water, but you should. I tested mine every step of the way. First in a garbage can just overflowing the water on top of itself (with the wiring covered). Then with the piping attached, emptying back into the garbage can (I did this to clean out the pipe a bit too, but that was unique to my situation). Then again about 20 feet into water in the well. Then of course again at the bottom. I will 100% buy again. At this price I may just keep one on hand.

Pump has lasted me about a year and counting. However.... When I first put it in it failed within a week. The trouble is that the capacitor is loose in its housing so it jerks aginst the wires each time the pump kicks on. I pulled the pump and replaced the capacitor. Not because it failed but because the wire broke right where it meets the capacitor. If I were to buy this again I would replace the capacitor initially or at least reinforce the wires. Also the instructions include some information about a weep hole just above the check valve. This is not necessary and if you put it it will ultimately result in a jet of water that will cut your well casing or at least heat it to the point that it distorts making it difficult to pull the pump.

While I suppose you should expect a well pump to last a lifetime, this Chinese-manufactured pump was purchased in Jun. 2019 and just died today (March, 2026) which for $183 bucks seems like a decent quick fix if your pocketbook is light. It worked well for us, was essentially problem-free, pumped from our well effortlessly and was mostly quiet, having only a semi-loud "click" when it stopped pumping, which was not a nuisance at all. We purchased a new American-made one for $620 bucks because we needed it immediately and we HOPE to get at least double or more in longevity. All in all, if you need something to fix your well pump issue, I wouldn't hesitate...you only have to wait for it to arrive thru shipping.

Update: Replacement pump for the original failed Hallmark well pump I installed (and based the original review on below) has failed after a month. These things are total garbage, and I suggest you don't even waste your time. I don't even understand how this company can stay in business. ------------------------------------------------- Failed in less than a year with moderate use. Also, from the start several claims made in the description are false: Internal Check valve? If there is one, it doesn't work at all. All stainless still parts? Seems to have an awful lot of corrosion in a very short time span. "Unique floating impeller design" - I guess. Maybe that's why it seems to quiver and jump and so much. Built-in control box? If so, like the check valve it doesn't work either and you'll need an external one. Quiet motor? Compared to what? A vacuum cleaner? Long store short - these seem to be junk. I'm not sure how it has so many good reviews and recommendations (which is why I bought one in the first place). Maybe like so many manufacturers they've shipped production to China resulting in a downturn in quality. Considering the labor required (read: PITA) to get one of these properly installed in a deep well, look elsewhere to avoid a boat load of wasted time.

This has lasted over a year and is running strong. It sits at 140ft and keeps up with the garden being watered and taking a shower at the same time. It is hard to beat for the price. Now this thing is really heavy and is my only complaint. Will order another for a backup incase of lightning or anything else.

Installed july 2023. Added check valve to pump and drilled 1/8" bleed hole per directions. Installed down to 226 ft with torque arrestor on 1 1/4" line. Got 24 gallons per minute flow at well head. installed Barrett Pump Stop 1" Plastic Valve - 50# just before the check valve going into the pressure tank to control pump stopping too quickly. So far working great! I get all the water I need. My well produces prodigious amounts of water. I plan to tee off the tank line to feed irrigation on the land next spring. I'll check back in the future to add any comments on performance issues I encounter. 1/25/2025

Al parecer el producto es de muy alta calidad, por diferentes causas no ha sido posible su instalación, espero su funcionamiento sea el optimo

I'm impressed. We bought this pump to replace a failed really expensive pump. We were shocked at how heavy and well built this pump is. Working very well.

Installed this for my house 60ft deep well with 120ft travel to house pressure tank and it works very well with excellent pressure. I have to say I was a little worried about the fact it’s a 2hp deep well pump for around $350 which is an amazing price but I’m very happy with the purchase.

Packaging was great. Pump arrived undamaged. Instructions were clear. Check valve and torque arrester installed. Flow and pressure is excellent at 127'. Hopefully we will get years of service.

After 1 year in the well it's working perfect only thing is you need to add a brass foot valve not a big deal , the plumber who hooked up my water tank was very impressed at the flow rate it gave me on a 160 foot well and it's less than half the price I can get one local in NB Canada , quality built for sure
