Q: can a theter switch be replaced with afloat switch and what cost differance is there by Donna from Wisconsin on April 25, 2012
A: As long as the original switch utilizes a "piggyback" style plug and the pump and switch each have their own power cord, you can replace that tether switch with any other "piggyback" style Float Switch. Please note however that most "piggyback" style floats will only work for pumps that are rated at 1/2HP and 15 amps or less. by Jim, Product Expert
