I’m thinking about getting a backup return pump. I have been using the same sicce syncra 3 for probably 4-5 years now and it dawned on me that I have no backup if it fails and I don’t think I have ever given it a good soak. I have taken it apart and brushed it off maybe twice which is to me a testament to sicce’s reliability. If I do get a back up it will probably be the same pump or maybe get the 4.0 and make the 3 a backup.
But I’m curious. How many actually rotate return pumps? The frugal part of me hates to spend $200 for a pump that’s going to sit on the shelf so I would have to rotate them to feel better about myself lol. Do you use the same brand? Do you prefer mag over DC? Seems to me the mag pumps are the gold standard for reliability.
