Oasis pump full of dark blue powdery mess?

So I changed out my underperforming summer loop pump, it was sort of moving fluid but not enough to keep up with hot water demand. I took the old one apart just to see how the inside was made but found the problem too- the impeller vanes were chock full of blue powdery crud. The coolant looks and tests fine and ITR didn't know where it could have come from. I suspect corrosion of some type but never seen it happen in navy blue.



Has anyone else seen this?

After you clean that all out, it looks like you have a spare pump!

Most likely a copper compound. Root killer is that color, copper sulfates

What brand & color is the boiler fluid you're using in your oasis? Have you or a service shop added Oasis fluid to the reservoir by chance?




Happy Trails

Century TF1, has turned a brown color. Still tests OK with a pH of 9.3.



Only half a gallon of TF1 was added last March.
