To ensure proper water flow:
• Use rigid PVC pipe with a minimum diameter of 3/4”, (1-1/2” is recommended) for the dedicated return line. Flexible PVC piping is not
recommended as it can be damaged by expansion and movement caused by the surge of pump pressure.
• The booster pump inlet connection line should be at least 3/4” pipe. The supplied 3/4” barb fitting is designed to work with the Waterway
supplied reinforced hose.
• Do not tap into the top of a horizontal line.
Installing the Pump
1. Mount the pump using two concrete expansion anchors to ensure stability.
2. Install supplied 3/4” barb fitting onto pump discharge and supply ports using Teflon® tape as sealant.
3. Measure and cut reinforced hose ensuring cut is clean, with no more than a 30º off straight edge.
4. Push the hose onto the hose barbed fitting until it is flush against the hose barb base. Secure the hose with supplied hose clamps.
