What the primary source says
Health Canada lists an electrical-hazard recall of certain 3-inch Grundfos SQFlex solar submersible pumps. Stop using affected surface-installed pumps and contact Grundfos or the installer for repair or replacement. Return uninstalled units for replacement. The official instructions say no immediate action is required for pumps installed in wells, but they should be identified and isolated, and Grundfos contacted when removed in future.

Why it matters

The model and date-code combination is the decisive check. The official action differs depending on whether the pump is uninstalled, used above ground or already installed in a well.
