I ordered one as I’m curious and want something more boondock friendly. I’ll let you know how it works out.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I will report back on what I order and how installation goes!!

I installed the REMCO AES today which I got from http://freshwatersystems.com since RVUpgrades gouges big time in shipping costs. It's the same noise as the one I got from Camping World I posted above, it has the same pressure as that pump which is 5.x gpm where this one is 3.4 so this one is impressive. As mentioned, same noise, it's quiet but I'd rather not hear any pump noise at all but I don't think that's going to happen. I am happy though 1) I have a better gpm cap for boondocking but 2) more importantly the voltage is within limits of the water pump controller whereas the prior one could exceed although never blew the 10A fuse.

Good pump, as this one orients differently with inlets at the top it made for a slightly easier install to, but no fun regardless, done!

Neal,
You change pumps like I change shirts. Why don’t you mount it like this? Quiet and a 15 minute change out.

What fun is that? I broke my arm in two places just to get behind the panel. Come on...don't take the easy way out

Very pleased with the Remco AES pump. Better than the one I got from camping world. Quiet, fast priming. It’s a keeper.

We finally installed a new water pump. Purchased same as original. It was a bitch to install because of the location and needing 3 hands to do it!! It is in and it works! Woohoo. Now we are off to the Sierras!!

Following. Our crapped out again after 1.5 years. Blows fuse and black, grey tank sensor displays go dead.
