Ventilation -
Ventilation and drainage must be provided to prevent
damage to the motor from heat and moisture.
Freezing -
Pump and all piping must be protected from freezing. If
freezing weather is forecast, drain pump or remove completely from
the system.
Water Supply -
The water source must be able to supply enough
water to satisfy the capacity of pump and water needs. See
Performance Chart on page 2.
Suction Lift -
Suction lift is the vertical distance from the lowest level
of the water to the pump intake. See Performance Chart on page 2.
Horizontal Distance -
The horizontal distance is the horizontal
measurement between pump suction and the water source. This
distance may affect the ability of pump to operate. If it is more than
100 ft., call the manufacturer for assistance: 1-800-584-8089.
Wire Size:
The wire size is determined by the distance from the power source to
the pump motor and the horsepower rating of the motor. See the wire
chart in ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS for proper wire size.

Pipe And Fittings
Use galvanized steel or NSF PW Schedule 40 PVC
pipe and fittings. This material is designed for water
pressure and will seal against air and water under
pressure. Do Not Use: DWV fittings, as these are
designed for drains without pressure and will not seal
properly.
CAUTION:
The entire system must be air and
water tight for efficient operation and to maintain
prime.
