Shallow Well Installation (continued)
New Shallow Well Installation (Depth to Water 25 feet or less)
CAUTION:
To avoid skin burns, unplug the pump and allow time for it to cool after periods of extended use.
1
Connecting (E) Schedule 80 PVC or Flex
pipe to the (A) foot valve. Review local
codes for pipe specifications.
2
Slide the pipe assembly into your
existing drilled well.
WARNING:
Read the cement instructions carefully and
make sure the pipe connections are strong enough. This pump
could build up to 70 psi pressure in the system. If the pipe
joints are weak, the pipe and foot valve could pop out and fall
into the well by the system high pressure.
Subtract 5 ft. from the depth of your well. This is the total length of
PVC or Flexible pipe.
Connect one section of the PVC or Flexible pipe to foot valve.
Before sliding the pipe assembly into the well, firmly clamp the
assembly with a pipe clamp (not included) to prevent the
assembly from sliding down into the well.
NOTE
:
DO NOT let the assembly slide down into the well.
3
Slide a (H) 4 in. Well Seal over the (E)
PVC or Flexible Pipe
4
Attach a (B) 1-1/4 in. priming tee with
plug to the PVC or flexible pipe.
Remove the pipe clamp and slide the (H) 4 in. well seal (sold
separately) over the PVC or Flexible pipe and onto the well casing
(not shown).
The PVC or Flexible Pipe should extend approximately 12 in. from
the well seal, depending on the height of the pump placement.
Tighten the well seal until the rubber gaskets are tight against the
well casing and the PVC pipe.
Attach a (B) 1-1/4 in. priming tee with plug (sold separately)
onto the ridgid pipe extending from the well seal.
