Installation 4

BEFORE YOU INSTALL YOUR PUMP

NOTICE: Well must not be more than 20' (6.1m) depth

to water.

Step 1. Long runs and many fittings increase friction and

reduce flow. Locate pump as close to well as

possible; use as few elbows and fittings as possi-

ble. Be sure suction line is straight and angles

toward pump.

Step 2. Be sure well and pipe are clear of sand, dirt and

scale. Foreign matter will plug pump and void

warranty. Use new pipe for best results.

Step 3. Protect pump and all piping from freezing.

Freezing will split pipe, damage pump and void

warranty. Check locally for frost protection

requirements (usually pipe must be 12" (30.5cm)

below frost line and pump must be insulated).

Step 4. Be sure all pipes and foot valve are clean and in

good shape.

Step 5. No air pockets in suction pipe.

Step 6. No leaks in suction pipe. Use Teflon tape or

Plasto-Joint Stik to seal pipe joints.

Step 7. Unions installed near pump and well will aid in

servicing. Leave room to use wrenches.

Pump body may explode if used as booster

pump. DO NOT use in booster application.

Motor normally operates at high tempera-

ture and will be too hot to touch. It is protected from

heat damage during operation by an automatic internal

cutoff switch. Before handling pump or motor, stop

motor and allow it to cool for 20 minutes.

WELL PIPE INSTALLATION

NOTICE: Use installation method below which matches

your well type.

CASED WELL/DUG WELL INSTALLATION

Step 1. Inspect foot valve to be sure it works freely.

Inspect strainer to be sure it is clean and secure.

Step 2. Connect foot valve and strainer to first length of

suction pipe and lower pipe into well. Add sec-

tions of pipe as needed, using Teflon tape on

male threads (use 1-1/2" pipe for suction pipe).

Be sure all suction pipe is leakproof or pump will

lose prime and fail to pump. Install foot valve 10

to 20 ft. (3 to 6 m) below lowest level to which

water will drop while pump is operating (pump-

ing water level). Your well driller can furnish this

information.

Step 3. To prevent sand and sediment from entering

pumping system, foot valve/strainer should be at

least 5 ft. (1.5 m) above bottom of well.

Step 4. When proper depth is reached, install sanitary

well seal over pipe and in well casing. Tighten

bolts to seal casing.

Step 5. When using foot valve, a priming tee and plug

are recommended. (Figure 1).
