I have had 2 Shurflo Extreme Pro Blasters (5901-2212) fail due to the failure of the pressure sense switch. In both cases the pumps work fine. I have sourced new pressure switches and am in the process of reinstalling them. Actually it's a pretty simple fix but the switches are $50 each at Defender. I'd like to reinstall one one of the pumps back in the system as the Jabsco replacement is a lower pressure pump and puts out low pressure with the inline filtration system.
So the question is: Are these failures due to being under pressure for an extended period of time? Should I depressurize the FW system when away? I turn the pump off but perhaps a pressurized system is the reason for the failure of the switch.
