Continuos Duty Bilge Blowers

wrote:
I'm tired of replacing my bilge blowers, as these Atwood Continuous
Duty (continuous duty in a pigs eye), inline blowers only last one
season before they start squealing.

I probably use my blowers more than the average Joe, so I need a
blower that offers real, and reliable continuous duty.

Why?? Fuel or gas leaks?? (hope not)

Once the motor is running at some revs it's sucking in more air than
any blower is likely to move; indeed leaving the blower on at cruise is
robbing the motor of free air supply or at least trying to.

Assuming your engine room is reasonably well sealed, that could be part
of the problem for the blowers??? struggling against the inrushing air
trying to feed the motor??

I looked at this one, and it does look much more durable than the
little plastic inline blowers, but the motor doesn't look like it
would tolerate a salt environment, though I could be wrong.

Any other recommendations?
