It is the molded base the motor sits on and bolts through to the equipment pad.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeyond the WhisperFlo XF, this base is listed with the IntelliFlo XF VSF and IntelliFlo XF VS pumps manufactured after August 2015.

Water sits in it, freezes and splits it, mounting bolts get pulled down too far, and constant vibration works cracks wider.
