During the first day of use of my new FastWasher 24 I noticed that the two pumps hang from the bottom of the washer without actually touching the floor of the basin. I thought this might cause a problem but gave it a try because the manufacturer did not recommend supporting the pumps in any way.
When I noticed one of my pumps having decreased output I inspected the pump for problems or debris and found nothing.
Later when disassembling the unit for cleaning I noticed that the weight of the pump and the constant vibration had pulled the threaded nipples apart from the bottom plastic manifold. I will require a replacement bottom plastic manifold before I can use this system again and when I use this in the future I will place a sponge support underneath the pumps to hold the pump weight and absorb vibration.
I have sent a couple of emails to the manufacturer about this issue but so far I have not gotten any reply.
