Water pump replacement help

Hey guys, new to the forum and new to the world of travel trailers. Last year we bought a 2008 G2 and a lake lot with full hook ups. We never used the water pump as the water pressure was fine and didn't require it. When I went to winterize I found that the pump wasn't working, I still managed to manually get antifreeze into the lines but I am looking for a replacement water pump and am wondering if someone knows the details on the right size to get and a good place to get one, I am in Canada.

Thanks

A very popular one is the Shurflo Revolution. They come standard on a lot of new TT's. A 12 volt 3 gallon/minute pump should suffice. Also welcome from New York!

Doesn't run or didn't suck the antifreeze?

Then I have to ask, are you sure you had the valves in the right configuration, suction line from tank closed, short hose for winterizing open?
I'll sometimes hold that short hose up and prime it with a little antifreeze before sticking in into the jug.
If you do end up replacing the pump, take an extra minute or two to isolate vibrations.

Mine froze and cracked the front cap. Simple replacement w/ same pump on Amazon for about $75. Prime shipped to the campground and installed the next day. Remove 4 mounting screws holding it to the floor, disconnect 2 waterlines [screw off[, and cut the pos and neg wires. Reinstall the new one exactly like you removed the old one.
