Do I have to use the pump or can it be turned off?

You do not have to use pump at all. Its more about how you hook up hoses. The motor is the same regardless if you use as vac or pump.

I can't see any reason why the pump needs to be shut off. If there are small leaks, the pump may keep up with them. Depending on the pump design, you can get problems if you leave the pump to tank tube open, and then shut off the pump....it may draw oil out of the pump, and into your tank

There is a pump (not included) that works in conjunction with this faucet. The electrical switch that turns the pump on/off is located on the faucet.

No, this pump will keep pumping until it burns up. Or gets the power shut off. You'll have to have some sensor in the tank to shut it off

yes u can when the pump starts sucking air it will shut itself off...clogging hardly ever happens either....its a good pump so far for me

there is a 3 way toggle switch on the end of the motor-lower side that you flip one way for high-one way for low-middle turns pump off.

No. You control flow by limiting the outflow. I have a valve on the output and the pump can run even when it's completely closed.

No way to turn off but there is no reason for. The water on the faucet is the water that fill the reservoir and you always want fill it after flush

The best thing is to have a ball valve installed in the line that you close off first before turning off the pump. The reason for not shutting it off, is the vacuum you just pulled will suck oil back from the pump back into whatever you just pulled the vacuum on if you just turn it off without some sort of shutoff valve. BTW, some pumps have this valve built in. This one does not.

I do not think so. I know when I turn it back on the pump needs to be restarted.

Sure you can set your filter pump independent of salt system. Your salt water system should will turn off if it senses your pump is not running. Often I don't user automatic timers on mine. I just turn on both at same time and the salt water keeps it's setting

not sure, I just turn off the valve, It is easier for me to do that when its raining because my unit is hidden.

No pumping required. Once you set the steam level (Low, Medium or High), there is continuous steam until you push the steam level button again to select "off," or unplug it. I probably should elaborate that a lot of people don't seem to realize there is a way to turn the steam off aside from unplugging the power cord. No "off" switch is probably one of the most frequent complaints I see in the reviews. The off control is the same button that controls the steam level. Push the button once for Low steam, push again for Medium steam, push again for High steam, and push it a fourth time to turn the steam OFF. So, although there is no separate off/on switch (which I don't find to be a problem at all), the mop CAN be turned off without unplugging the power cord.

I a believe it does Yvonne. I put it in as a designated line which I can keep running or throw a switch on the post. Sorry..I'm not technical, but I believe there is a on/off switch on the pump...but would not advise using it that way.

Sorry but I dont have the answer to this one. I never thought about turning it off.

The pump is a demand pump. When I installed mine it would pump too much and caused rapid on/off operation until I opened up the nozzle. I presently have mine wired to a switch on the handle so I can turn it on when I need it. I have had problems with the pressure switches and decided to bypass it. This is not necessary unless the pump cycles off and on while spraying.

Yes, you can turn it off for a short time. It will continue to drip so that your water temp stays constant. You must turn it off with the wall valve when you're done.
