Discharge Pipe and Pressure Tank Connections

PRE-CHARGE TANK CONNECTION

Install two tees in the pump discharge port. The pipe size must be at least as large as the discharge port.

NOTE: A pre-plumbed pump-on-tank system only requires one tee.
Run a pipe or reinforced hose from one arm of the first tee to the port on the pre-charged tank.

Connect the other discharge tee to your plumbing system.

Check the pre-charge of air in the tank with an ordinary tire gauge. Your new pump has a 30/50 PSI switch, so adjust the tank pre-

charge pressure to 28PSI. The pre-charge is measured when there is no water in the tank. The pre-charge should be 2 PSI less than the
cut-in setting of the pump's pressure switch.
Congratulations! You have just completed the tank connection for your jet pump.
NOTE: Sealing Pipe Joints. Use only teflon tape for making all threaded connections to the pump itself. Do not use pipe joint
compounds on plastic: they can react with the plastic. Make sure that all pipe joints in the suction pipe are air tight as well as water tight.
If the suction pipe can suck air, the pump will not be able to pull water from the well.
