The universal mounting bracket is a genuine time-saver on retrofits — it eliminates the need to drill new mounting holes in most cases. The ignition-protection rating matters if the pump is going anywhere near the engine compartment or a fuel tank; confirm this with the customer before recommending a non-rated alternative. The easy-access unclogging knob is worth highlighting to customers who’ve dealt with clogged macerators before — it’s a real differentiator over pumps that require full disassembly to clear a blockage.
