Whale AK1550 Gulper® 220 Service Kit Replacement Parts

I love these whale gulper pumps! That said, in my experience the service life of these pumps is about 5 to 7 years of normal use. When they start to go, you'll see a decrease in pumping volume. Don't spend a fortune on a new pump when you can use this kit to make it like new again for pennies on the dollar. Don't get stranded somewhere with a busted pump, keep one of these kits on hand and you'll be ready to go in short order.

Instructions would be nice, but I managed and my old Gulper is like new.

My shower room waste pump stopped working got a plumber out and told me the problem but couldn’t get the parts for 10 days brought it from this company. Amazon also said 10 days delivery. Ordered Friday afternoon arrived Monday morning. I am not a plumber but I was able to strip the pump down and fit the service kit with no problems.Engineer by trade so I could use a screwdriver and a spannerHardest part was the pump has to be on the downward strokeThe only way I could find to do this was on a u tube videoDisconnected the live from the pump turned the shower on (shower head in the sink)Touched the live connection briefly to the live on the pump until the pump was at its lowestTurn it all of and instal the service kitWhat I also did was take take pictures as I went alongGoing to buy another kit in case it goes wrong in the future

Fitted it 6 months ago .works perfectly all the parts were there easy to install step-by-step instructions

I only wanted one bit out of this kit, but had to buy the lot. The rubber none returned valve, and it’s star shaped so it won’t last as long as a flat equivalent. Not good and I’m wishing I’d got a different pump ☹️

The design is crap the basic valve system is dreadful. On the inlet flap I reinforced it with some plastic so it shut tight on the outlet flap I used a roĺled up piece of silicon rubber to make the valve seal. Now the crap design works well and now the shower floor stays dry and the filter system ha ha big joke a fitted a stainless mesh cover it now clips out and just empty in the loo a really bad design around. I use it a wet room as I am disabled. My recommendation is buy another manufacture not Whale.

i had never heard of such a thing as this pump ,but when it broke the shower just ceased to work forty eight hours later from the south of england we had the repair kit ,,next day the shower is working...great service...cant tell you what i received but the plumber was happy
