I recommend that you pick up a spare impeller. One of the times I tore
down my 2215 to correct a rattle, I found that a portion of the plastic
on the impeller had cracked apart (needing replacement). After measuring
the thickness and tolerances, I leaned on Eheim for what was potentially
a design weakness, and they eventually supplied me with a replacement at
no charge. I keep spare impellers for my Fluvals too in case anyone
suspects me of being impartial ;~).



Hmm, I have two Fluvals and one of them is about a year old. Where do
you get the spare parts and what other spare parts should I keep?


Thanks

BTW, I like your web site.


Apart from filter medium etc. I keep a spare impeller - I have 204,
304's and a 404. The parts for the 304 and 404 are interchangeable...and
I also have a spare 304 sitting in the garage (there is a history
behind this which is way too long to recount) - one day I'll find a tank
for it :-) but right now it is great for spares.
