Gould’s irrigation pump - input/opinions

[A747]

Hi all, the bad weather here in TX caused a whole bunch of plumbing and water issues. I’ve dealt with most but now turning my attention to my irrigation pump. I have very little experience with these, have a Gould’s Irri-gator C48C53A06. As y’all will see in photos it cracked pretty good. Wanted to get thoughts on replacement and whether I should go with same model or try something different? Appreciate the input and advice! Thank you. Al

If you are running the sprinklers manually or with a pump start relay in the sprinkler controller, the Gator GT pumps work fine. If you want to use a pressure tank/pressure switch and be able to open a faucet to have water, a jet pump like the J15S is best.
