The black polyethylene pressure hose, at 1 € per meter which is generally used for drinking water pipes?


It is indeed that. : http://www.leboutte.be/catalogue_FR_Bat ... carex.html

Replace it with black polyethylene, but it's a bit stiff for the exit of the well ... No?

It is a little rigid but by preheating it in the sun it is more
accommodating. Otherwise there are elbow fittings made for (+ - 15 €).

... it heats up with use

Wouldn't it be installed in a humid place?
If this is the case, the winding may not support
water and is poorly insulated. I just had the problem with the
pump of my swimming pool which was submerged. I let heat
the engine a few times in several days, which allowed the
dry winding. Since there is no more problem of overheating.
Unfortunately I think the bearings are dying. But
I'm losing my way ... :?

Well no, it is new but with old pipe.

Take a combination:
My old pumps were making more noise, and since it was running 20 minutes / day, so as not to annoy the neighborhood, I put it in an insulating box.
It is a refrigerator that I cut in half, and keeping only the top with its door. With 2 holes in the hole saw for the passage of the pipes.
The box does not dissipate the heat given off by the engine, but this has the advantage of being sheltered from the weather.
Whatever? It took frost in early December (broken cast iron).
