The plumbing is pex. I think the intermittent problem is now a full time problem and will be easier to find. On city water I have no leaks, but when I turn the pump on water is running out from under the mounting base. We are in glacier and I don't want to spend good hiking days working on a pump since taking the pump out interrupts all water flow the way it's piped. I report more when I tear it down. I may just be able to take the head off the motor.
