About WAYNE SWS100-1 HP Cast Iron Shallow Jet Well Pump
Overall Feedback:
79% positive
86% found the motor to be reliable and durable, while 14% experienced frequent breakdowns
My newer one stopped working after less than a year.
I don't think the unit is worth the price, it's over $200.
74% found it easy to install, but 26% encountered difficulties
I found the pump easy to install with minor plumbing modifications to adjust dimensions.
I had a bad experience with the installation of the well pump. The motor started smoking immediately after installation and huge plumes of smoke appeared from it within seconds.
80% liked the high-quality components, but 20% found them subpar
After installing the new pump, the motor started smoking immediately, indicating poor quality.
The only problem with the product is that the threads in the cast iron are very coarse.
I am dissatisfied with the product's quality as it is not worth the price of over $200.
I would not purchase the product again due to the poor quality of the pressure switch.

77% liked the quiet operation, but 23% found it too loud
The new unit is smaller, lighter and way more silent than the previous one.
My pump's motor started getting noisy and froze up.
78% appreciated its high pressure rating, but 22% experienced low pressure
I had to replace the pressure switch as it only had a 10 PSI difference between cut in and cut out regardless of adjustments made.
