Bought my house in Oct 2015. 3/4 acre lot. Property has shallow well and PVC spigots coming out of the ground in 4 locations. Awesome. But I procrastinated and NEVER tried it out. Well I finally went to prime and try recently and quickly observed the housing of the expensive Goulds GT15 (1.5hp) pump is destroyed. Obviously from freezing water. So- The 230 volt motor seems to work. A new housing is $360 plus. For $400-$500 I can get a complete new unit of a different name brand. Is it safe to assume the Goulds housing is the only part of the pump that is damaged? Lowes website has a BURCAM 2 hp shallow well pump for $412. So- replace housing or purchase a new replacement unit??
