I was starting to have issues with my AL after two years of constant operation and I worried I couldn't find a replacement because they went out of business or just stopped making them. Yesterday I searched Amazon and found Aqua Lift, a knock off I suspect but desperate times. I jut received it and am going to swap them out and see how it goes.

We have the new aqua lifter pumps. Toms Aquatics stopped making these pumps a while ago but Koller Kraft distributed them. They sold well enough that Koller decided to make their own version when Toms Aquatics dropped them. I think the quality is similar but unfortunately, the price has gone up. It seems that is the way of things lately.

Amazon had them at a discount plus my wife had a coupon so for $40 I got it. If it works well I'll buy a couple more to keep as back ups.
One thing that should have been copied exactly was the hole where it is hung from, it is narrower so I will have to slightly modify the hanger to accommodate the new pump. Easy fix.
Thanks for your input, I know a number of folks who depend on this litte gem!!!
