Installation

4. Install a priming tee, priming plug, and suction pipe to the pump

(see Figure 2). Connect the pipe from the well to the pump suction
port, using the fewest possible fittings – especially elbows – as fittings
increase friction in the pipe (however, include a foot valve – see
Figure 2). The suction pipe should be at least as large as the suction
port on the pump. Support the pipe so that there are no dips or sags
in the pipe, so it doesn’t strain the pump body, and so that it slopes
slightly upward from the well to the pump (high spots can cause air
pockets which can air lock the pump). Seal the suction pipe joints with
PTFE pipe thread sealant tape or a PTFE-based pipe joint compound.
Joints must be air- and water-tight. If the suction pipe can suck air, the
pump cannot pull water from the well.

You have just completed the suction piping for your new shallow well jet 
pump. Please go to Page 6 for discharge pipe and tank connections.

Installation for Surface Water 

(Figure 3)

 Possible contamination . Do not use surface water for drinking. 

The installation shown could be used for sprinkler applications.
1. The pump should be installed as close to the water as possible, with

the fewest possible fittings (especially elbows) in the suction pipe. The
suction pipe should be at least as large as the suction port on the pump.

2. Assemble a foot valve and suction pipe (see Figure 3). Make sure that

the foot valve works freely. Use PTFE pipe thread sealant tape or a
PTFE-based pipe joint compound on threaded pipe joints. Protect the
foot valve assembly from fish, trash, etc, by installing a screen around it
(see Figure 3).

3. Lower the pipe into the water until the strainer is five feet above the

bottom. It should also be at least 10 feet below the water level in order
to prevent the pump from sucking air.

4. Install a priming tee, priming plug, and suction pipe to the pump (see

Figure 3). Support the pipe so that there are no dips or sags in the pipe,
so it doesn’t strain the pump body, and so that it slopes slightly upward
from the well to the pump (high spots can cause air pockets which can
air lock the pump). Seal the suction pipe joints with PTFE pipe thread
sealant tape or a PTFE-based pipe joint compound. Joints must be air- 
and water-tight. If the suction pipe can suck air, the pump cannot pull
water from the water source.
