GENERAL PUMP INFORMATION
Pipe And Fittings
3. 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.
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 on page 11 for proper wire size.
WELL TO PUMP CONNECTION (SUCTION PIPE)
CAUTION: Dry-fit entire assembly to ensure proper fit before gluing or taping parts.
CAUTION: Follow all proper gluing procedures as specified by the glue manufacturer. Always
glue in a vertical direction whenever possible to prevent glue from dripping inside pipe or fittings
CAUTION: Use pipe tape and pipe paste compound on all male threads. Tighten with wrench to
a snug fit and add another 1/4 turn to ensure proper seal.
1. Thread 1-1/4 in. male PVC adapter (not
included) into a 1-1/4 in. foot valve (not
