We will be running all the the wiring in the grey conduit. My husband got sick with allergies/sinus/etc, two weeks ago, so the project has been in limbo since then. All the wiring from the house to the outlet box is in conduit, we just need to finish the pump area. And, yes, the only reason we have not weedwhacked anything yet is because we have not had the whacker out- too sick for that too.
So are you suggesting that we re-hardwire the pump with 12 gage wire? I am pretty sure it will void the warranty on the less than year old pump, so I want to be really sure about that before we go there. If the wiring inside the pump is on the same standard as what is coming out of the pump, would that not just move the problem closer to the motor?
Actually, there are several other aspects of the pump that I am not happy with, so I am planning to contact Doughboy first and express my dissatisfaction. My ideal would be to get my money back and get a better quality pump.
