[RE-wrenches] Fwd: RE: Good service on Lorentz

[Allan Sindelar]

A good report from a customer about Genpro, who services Lorentz pumps. We replaced a failed motor earlier this year, and were serviced by Solar Power and Pump in Oklahoma. They gave good service also, but have subsequently dropped Lorentz.

I sent Genpro the motor.  They took it apart and concluded that it was not repairable.  The seal at the end was deformed and had allowed fluid inside.  This destroyed the bearings entirely and the motor was firmly seized. They did not charge me for the work to diagnose the situation, which was nice. -fred   From: Allan Sindelar [mailto:al...@positiveenergysolar.com] Sent: Friday, November 12, 2010 8:59 PM Subject: Fwd: Re: [RE-wrenches] Lorentz   Fred, you might try Genpro. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [RE-wrenches] Grundfos Date: Wed, 10 Nov 2010 23:42:29 GMT To: re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org   I'm having much better luck with Lorentz than Grundfos for several years now. My 1st choice is always Lorentz now. Easy to field service and I love the controls on the wall and out of the well. Dislike no AC-DC swapping and narrower V window and the need for 6 wires down the hole.  Good prices and service from GenPro in SD. I've had a trouble free ETA pump (predecessor to the Lorentz)  in my well for 10 years now.   >From the Solar, Wind and Hydro powered office of Jeff Oldham/Regenerative SOLutions
