Aqua lifter replacement

[G Santana]

I was starting to have issues with my AL after two years of constant operation and I worried I couldn't find a replacement because they went out of business or just stopped making them. Yesterday I searched Amazon and found Aqua Lift, a knock off I suspect but desperate times. I jut received it and am going to swap them out and see how it goes.

We have the new aqua lifter pumps. Toms Aquatics stopped making these pumps a while ago but Koller Kraft distributed them. They sold well enough that Koller decided to make their own version when Toms Aquatics dropped them. I think the quality is similar but unfortunately, the price has gone up. It seems that is the way of things lately.

Koller Aqua Lift Pump

The Koller Aqua Lift vacuum pump’s unique design lifts water with its diaphragm and flappers – pumping water up to 24” high and at a flow rate of 3 gallons per hour.

Amazon had them at a discount plus my wife had a coupon so for $40 I got it. If it works well I'll buy a couple more to keep as back ups.
One thing that should have been copied exactly was the hole where it is hung from, it is narrower so I will have to slightly modify the hanger to accommodate the new pump. Easy fix.
Thanks for your input, I know a number of folks who depend on this litte gem!!!
