the C-Systems pump has a mechanical seal on a shaft, press fit into a recess
this seal has all kinds of requirements to perform, and its general ability to last 50,000 hrs in water service should not be a burden to a mfgr wishing to sell into this market
it will be curious to see how long the fanboyism lasts
why do people think that they can get something for nothing ?

There is a cost for this pumps.... I can guarantee you that we paid for them
Of course there is mkg even on c-systems but there is nothing misleading... Dan never made any marketing promotion underlining the 50000hr MTBF (or ppl are focusing on figures only :shrug: )
That said they only have a warranty of one year (2 years for eheim pumps)...
