Stop swapping your pumps and start testing them instead

Do you have two pumps that are installed in parallel, so that if one fails you can swap to
the other pump with little or no consequence to operations? I know most of you do, and
if you have read the title of this article you already think I’m crazy. Because, if you don’t
swap your pumps then how do you know the “stand-by” will work when you need it? Well,
I’m going to tell you how, but first I’m going to explain why most folks are swapping their
run time between pumps and why this is wrong.
