Speaking of water ...

I’ve recently noticed a small leak from the Shurflo faucet in the galley sink of our 2018 T@G Outback XL. It only occurs when the faucet is turned on with the pump running. The leak occurs at the lever to turn on the water at the “fold down” side. I suspected that a washer or gasket had failed, but looking at the specs in the Shurflo Catalog these faucets are described as “washerless.” I probably will have to replace the faucet to fix the problem. Shurflo does have up to a 2 year limited warranty on their products, but unfortunately my faucet was manufactured in 05/2017. Has any one noted leaking from the galley faucet? We’re you able to repair it or did you replace the unit?

    I would think the date of mfg would not matter, but the rather the date you bought it.

    Dumb question...were you hooked up to a water connection at a camp site?

    The leak only occurs while using the pump - not a city water connection.

    Thanks for the comments. We noticed the leak using the water pump as we rarely camp with water hook ups. The good news ... when I contacted Pentair (Pentair purchased Shurflo), they were very cooperative and sent me a new pump. There are no replacement parts for the unit.
