GENERAL
Your AQUA-FLO pump has been quality built and engineered to give maximum
efficiency under normal water pumping conditions. Consult the manufacturer for
any other applications.
LOCATION OF PUMP
For best pump performance, locate the system as close to the water source as
possible. Provide adequate access around the pump for inspection and
maintenance.
MODELS LESS TRAP
This pump was designed for below water level (flooded suction) applications.
Make sure the pump is installed at a level that will allow the pump casing (volute)
to be completely filled with water.
Two quick disconnect compression fittings are included with your pump for ease
of installation and maintenance. Make sure the fittings are correctly aligned with
pump connections to allow the o-ring to make the proper seal.
Hand tighten
only. Do not use a wrench to tighten fittings.
MODELS WITH TRAP
Avoid excessive tightening of pipe or fittings in any areas where threaded
connections are used.
For NPT threaded connections, use Quick-Seal Teflon Thread Sealing
Compound, Plasto-Joint Stick or any other sealants formulated specifically for
plastics.
