Lucid Posted April 18, 2005 Report Share Posted April 18, 2005 Your best bet would be to pop into a jansens or hollywoods, an ask there, or alternatly try doing an online search through www.google.com and see what you come up with.

noddie Posted April 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2005 Thanks, but thats hardly solving my problem is it, i was hoping there might have been other users of the same equipment out there that might be of some help..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted April 18, 2005 Report Share Posted April 18, 2005 Agrees with Chimera.... But there are a couple of new atman filters on trade me, ask the seller if they are able to get parts for your's or they may know where you can source parts.

kim Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 they are great filters and you should find parts at marrey pets or pupuke aqurium, best to take the part in as they have a few different size shafts for the different models, i have had one of these filters since they first came in over 7yrs ago and i love it, they are just as good as eheims.

noddie Posted April 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Thank you kim....have done that and spares are on the way...i had mine for many years as well with no problems till now, and even now pies, its not broken at all its still running now, just getting a little noisey...as any filter would that has a worn impeller shaft.... and i suspect that with this replacement (at a cost of $27.00) will supply me with another 6 yrs of run time and still pump 800 ltrs hr then too...nothing wrong with them.
