Help! Houston, We Have A Problem.
I am wondering if anyone might have a recommendation for what to do; my main pump for the display is wearing out. I can go to a shop to replace the pump tomorrow. I cleaned it out today from top to bottom to determine the cause of the issue. I have cleaned the impeller and I greased it with plumbers grease, but the impeller is getting hot despite that.
Occurring is a sort of tidal surge as the water is pushed up into the tank for a few minutes- then the pump shuts off and the overflowing water returns to the sump for a few minutes before it kicks back in again to push into the display.
The worst part of it is that the damn dog barks every time the pump cuts out. It was happening overnight and we had no idea what he was barking at. We slept really badly last night.
Does anyone have any suggestions for how to push it through tonight?
