Replacement Switch
6 years ago
This float switch replaced a switch that failed after 5 years of service in a Flotec Sink Tray System pump used for laundry. Since the pump still works fine, replacing the switch saved nearly $150.00 vs. replacing the entire unit. I called Flotec for help and service tech. recommended Tractor Supply as one of the locations to find the replacement switch and even gave me the correct part number. I ordered on line and picked up curbside at our local store.
Yes, I recommend this product.
