How reliable is the magnetic vertical float, and can it be replaced or repaired if it fails in 2-3 years?
Richard K.

Answer
The Liberty VMF vertical float switch has been very reliable and probably one of the more reliable switches. While these are more prone to fail however, over the actual pump, they can be replaced if needed. Unfortunately, we do not offer these, so you would need to contact Liberty tech support (800-543-2550) for assistance on this when needed.
