Red Lion RL22G10-3W2V 4-inch Submersible Deep Well Pump with Control Box, 1 HP, 22 GPM, 3-Wire, 230-Volt, Steel, 14942409

worked as good as the old pump I replaced it with

04/2025 -10 Year Update: This pump has provided reliable service for my irrigation system since I installed it in 2015. It has run about 12 hours a week, every week, since 2015 without any issues. It has far exceeded my expectations.This Red Lion pump replaced my old 20gpm pump perfectly which finally failed after 27 years. It appears to be well made but its not as substantial as the older pump it replaced being about 3/4 the weight. Its been working flawlessly for my irrigation system for about four weeks now but only time will tell in regards to durability. Be aware this pump is what is considered a three wire pump but current electrical standards dictate that it actually has four wires. The fourth wire is a ground wire which older three wire pumps do not have. I mention this because I had to dig up and replace about 60 feet of electrical conduit since the original wasn't quite large enough to accommodate the new 4 wire pump cable which runs from the well to the pump motor control box.This pump has about 4 feet of cable from the motor to make your wiring splices to. Any other wiring will have to be purchased separately. This pump also comes with a new motor control box which I added a lightning arrestor to since we have a lot here in Florida. This pump also has a built-in check valve but I installed a separate check valve above the pump but below the well's water level as I read is often recommended. The same installation as my old pump.I've read some reviews complaining about disappointing performance from their new pump and I noticed most of those installations involved fairly deep wells. This particular pump model is a low pressure high volume pump intended for shallow wells. My water level is only 20 feet below grade so the pump does not have to overcome much head pressure to produce a lot of volume at 30-50psi. This pump model will not perform well in areas where the water table is deep and it is not intended for those applications. Red Lion has other model pumps for deep wells.

This company was easy to work with, their customer support made it easy to figure out which pump was right for me.

We bought this product about a year ago. Here are my observations and thoughts on this pump:ProsWarranty- The initial pump we received failed after about a year, we contacted Red Lion and they arrange for a warranty replacement without any hassles.Performance- The pump performed as advertise, we use it to fill a 2000 gallon tank located about 340 ft up a hill.Parts- It came with everything you would need to install from heat shrink tubes to control box.ConsDurability- it failed after a year, started out turning itself off after a few minutes and then completely stopped working, however products do failed and the company stood behind its warranty so I only deducted one star for that.

We are licensed plumbers, having worked on our own and many other water wells over the last forty years. We have installed many pumps, and this is the first one we've had to replace that did make it through the warranty period. We installed it exactly as the directions require, and it started failing at 18 months. When attempting to get warranty replacement, I was told to pull the well and add a sleeve, that this may not work (since I explained the pump is indeed inside a 6" casts iron casing as per their instructions), and if it doesn't work, then I am supposed to hire a well professional to come out, at my own cost, to attempt to diagnose what we already know is a problem, the motor is failing. Obviously, they have no intent on honoring their warranty so buyer beware!

The day I received this pump I pulled my old well pump and replaced it. The pump is working better than I anticipated. My well is pretty shallow. The pump is sitting at 60ft and the water begins at 11ft below the surface. I am only estimating the flow, but it appears to be over 25gpm. I am able to run 4 impact sprinklers with 7.1gpm nozzles without any problems and they are getting their full radius of spray. The electricity usage appears to be similar to the previous pump. All in all I would definitely recommend this pump to anyone who needs large amounts of water.

A very solid product, and a 3yr warranty what is not to like! It may be more expensive compare to others, but is reliable and it does the job. Great performance on a deep well of 150' at 24-25 gallons a minute. It comes with it's own controller box included.It works as design and advertise by the company. I rather spend the money on something where I am going to do the job right just once!.Best of all it is built here in the USA!

I got a great deal in this pump. Paid less than half what i would have paid locally. The specs for this pump are super accurate i have a deep well with a descent static head and this pump provides adequate pressure and volume even sitting at 240ft. Will definitely use again on my next well.
