Replacing pump seal and bearing assembly for a cooling tower pump. They said we just rebuilt this same pump last year. Does this look like normal wear on the seal , or installer malfunction? The bearings were so bad, the red housing turned black. One side of the impeller looks like a beaver had a hold of it. Could minor impeller damage cause bearing failure? I would think so but It’s not warped and I was told to keep it under my hat by their maintenance guy.
