DRIVEN POINT INSTALLATION
MATERIALS REQUIRED (NOT INCLUDED)
One can PVC cement & primer (read instructions
carefully)
One can thread compound (read instructions carefully)
Teflon tape
Rigid pipe
Check valve
Step 1. Connect suction pipe to drive point (Fig.2). Keep horizontal pipe run as short as possible. Use Teflon tape on
male pipe threads. Multiple well points may be necessary to provide sufficient water to pump.
Step 2. Install check valve in horizontal pipe. Flow arrow on check valve must point toward pump.
HORIZONTAL PIPING FROM WELL TO PUMP
Step 1. Pump performance will be decreased if less that 1-1/2" pipe is used as suction pipe.
Step 2. To aid priming on well point installations, install line check valve. Be sure check valve flow arrow points toward
pump.
DISCHARGE PIPE SIZES
Discharge pipe size should be increased to reduce pressure losses caused by friction on long pipe runs.

Up to 100'(30.5m) run: Same size as pump discharge port.

100'-300' (30.5-91.4m) run: Increase one pipe size.

300'-600' (91.4-182.9m) run: Increase two pipe sizes.
