Storing dock circulators

Eagle54 · 05-07-2016, 03:29 PM

Now that its time to store dock circulators for the summer, I'm looking for advice on the best method. I have had people tell me to disconnect it and leave it under the dock for the summer so gaskets don't dry out. Others have said to take it out of the water and spray it with WD-40 so it doesn't dry out (and doesn't get the algae, etc from leaving it in the water). The unit I have is an Aquatherm bottom unit, with a PVC-like frame holding the motor/propeller.
Thank you for any advice or recommendations.
