Does anyone have any experience or knowledge of the quality of Galley Maid
heads?
Thanks

 
Very old tech. Pump is basically a 12v starter motor with pumps on each end.
Which leaves it with two ways to get water in/on the motor when a seal fails.
Draws lots of amps when run and uses lots of water per flush. The pump is also
a bit loud. So it's best to remote locate it.
 
If you are looking to add a new head there are better choices out there IMHO.
Such as Tecma and Head Hunter.
