I have a Mermaid a/c unit in the aft cabin. It runs fine for about 20 mins, then water stops running from the outside and I have to reset the red switch on the unit. The FAQ at mermaid suggests the water pump, which is in the bilge.
Someone has replaced the pump for the main a/c unit with a March pump, can anyone recommend the most reliable pump to replace the aft cabin a/c pump with? It looks like the original pump, quite small and "flimsy" in build.

Trust me...... Been there done that and there is only one answer and thats a fact!..... Little giant raw water salt water aquarium pumps....designed to run 24/7 I have a total of three in use, one is 12 years strong.... Search postings I have made on this subject in the past.... There are links and pictures.

BTW...the SBO forum as a really nice search function. All I did was type in little giant and my previous postings came right up. Just try a few key words there you go.

Good luck on making the right decision that will work best for you.
