Bluline 100 or Iwaki 70 what would you prefer.

I have always wondered what pump to use on my 220 . lets take a poll and see what everyone else likes if using.

How about you tell us more specifically what the pump will be used for...?

Closed loop pump??? return pump??? skimmer pump???

 

[spazz]

if it is a closed loop than a sequence dart pump. for a return on a 220 than the smaller sequence tarpon pump. they are cheaper to run and come with a 3 year warrantee. they have super good costomer service and run cooler than the bluline or iswaki pumps do.

I agree darts or another sequence is the way to go.

From someone who has used an Iwaki 100 for over 12 years non-stop they can't be beat for realiability as return pumps. Sure they use a bit more electricity & produce some heat but beat the heck out of Sequence pumps for performance.

I'm in my second seal replacement on my 4 year old sequence pump. Any electricity savings was used up in the cost to fix this pump. Iwaki's have no seals to replace.
