WATER CONNECTION COMPONENTS
The pressure requirements put on the pump are directly
affected by the diameter of pipe being used, as well as the
water flow rate through the pipe. The worksheet included
in Manual 2100-078 should guarantee the well pump has
enough capacity. It should also ensure that the piping is
not undersized, which would create too much pressure due
to friction loss. High pressure losses due to undersized
pipe will reduce efficiency and require larger pumps and
could also create water noise problems.
