Been trying to come up with a pump system for a slush box and being that computer water pumps are designed to be compact when the pump portion gets cold so does the motor housing thus possible putting condensation where you don’t want it, so looking on line found this.

Been looking at single phase motors and found a few in the $20 range, size a couple of pulleys for desired RPM add a tensioner, cold pump-warm motor plus no added motor heat to dissipate.
Found a couple of different sellers and the GPH changes from 650 to 800 and nothing really on head pressure other than a statement saying it will push water 99 feet. Even if the pump is crap not a big deal can use the motor for a brass polisher.

Thanks Vin, did a little looking lot of candidates in the pond pumps. ya, I like it as everything within would be sealed and would also internally change in temps with the water around it so there couldn't be any condensation issues. it's a Win/Win there. you just need to figure out your output requirement. most of the ones I saw when I was shopping had a baffle that you could rotate to slow the flow down a little too, which is nice.
