Franklin Electric Water Pumps and Repair Parts

Your pump quit, the nameplate is half rusted off, and you need Franklin Electric water pumps or parts that fit the first time. This page sorts the Franklin line by job, points you to the right section, and shows exactly what to send for a fast quote on a pump or a part.

Franklin splits its water pumps into four families. Each one has its own section with full model details.

Choose Your Franklin Electric Water Pumps by Job

Start with the job the pump must do. Pull water from a well, pond, or tank with a surface pump, and raise pressure with a booster pump. Move filtered septic water with an effluent pump, and push sewage uphill to a sewer main with a grinder pump.

The Four Franklin Pump Families

Surface Pumps

Surface pumps sit above the water, so you can reach them for service. The family runs from 1/2 HP shallow well jet pumps to AG Series centrifugal pumps that move 65 to 900 GPM. Explore jet, self-priming, close-coupled, frame mount, and engine driven models in the Franklin surface pump section.

Booster and Multi-Stage Pumps

These pumps stack impellers to build pressure, not volume. The BT4 Series reaches discharge pressures up to 400 PSI, and the MH Series covers 15 to 90 GPM with motors up to 7.5 HP. Compare them with the Franklin booster pumps and packages.

Effluent and Cistern Pumps

Effluent pumps push clarified septic water to a drip field or leach field. The FPS-E and J-Class E-Series both cover 10 to 90 GPM, with shut off heads up to 619 feet. The same section holds the C1 cistern pump, found in the Franklin effluent pump lineup.

Grinder Pumps and Systems

Grinder pumps turn sewage into slurry and push it through a small force main. The 2 HP IGP Series makes 414,000 cuts per minute, and the high-head IGPH reaches 200 feet of shut off head. See pumps, packaged systems, and control panels in the Franklin grinder pump section.

Franklin Electric Replacement Parts and Repair

Many Franklin models have a repair parts breakdown with a numbered diagram. That lets you point to the exact seal, impeller, or wear plate you need.

• Seals: we manufacture the OEM seals for the FTT-20/40 and TT-20/40 self-priming pumps.
• Parts by diagram: the FMIH-40 breakdown lists every part, from the pump case to the flapper valve, by figure and part number.
• Engine pump parts: we stock service parts for the FNG-23V, including its mechanical seal.
• Grinder retrofits: the Franklin retrofit kit replaces a failed grinder pump without digging up the basin or force main.

What to Send for a Pump or Parts Quote

1. The model number and item number from the pump nameplate.
2. A photo of the nameplate, or of the worn part if the label is gone.
3. For parts, the figure number from the parts breakdown, if you have it.
4. For a new pump, the job, the water source, and the power you have on site.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Franklin Electric pumps good?

Yes, Franklin Electric pumps are a good choice for homes, farms, and commercial sites. Many models carry NSF/ANSI/CAN 372 certification for drinking water and use UL778 approved motors. Cast iron cases, stainless steel impellers, and back pull-out designs on several series make them durable and easier to service. The bigger factor in how well a pump performs is fit. A well-matched Franklin pump, sized for your flow, lift, and power, will outlast one that is pushed past its range.

Who sells Franklin Electric pumps?

Franklin Electric pumps are sold through pump suppliers. Buying from a supplier that also stocks parts means you get a genuine product and access to matching replacement parts. Ken's Distributing supplies Franklin Electric pumps and repair parts. We stock surface, booster, effluent, and grinder pumps, quote each order, and ship across the USA and Canada. Send us a model number, and we will confirm the right pump or part before you buy.

Which type of water pump is best for home use?

The best type of water pump for home use depends on where your water comes from. A shallow well jet pump suits a well with water within 25 feet of the surface. A convertible jet pump reaches deeper wells, up to 100 feet on the Franklin RM2. If you already have city water but low pressure, a booster pump such as the BT4 or MH Series is the better fit. Homes below the sewer line may also need a grinder pump.

Where can I get Franklin Electric water pump parts?

You can get Franklin Electric water pump parts from a Franklin Electric supplier that can match parts by model and part number. We supply seals, impellers, wear plates, check valves, retrofit kits, and other service parts across the Franklin lineup. Start with the model number on your pump's nameplate. If you have the parts breakdown, include the figure number too. We will confirm the correct part and quote it before anything ships.
