REPLACING AN OLD PUMP

:
WARNING Hazardous voltage. Disconnect power to the pump before working on a pump or a motor.
Drain and remove the old pump. Check the old pipe for scale, lime, rust, etc., and replace it if necessary.

Install the pump in the system. 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.
Adjust the pump mounting height so that the plumbing connections do not put a strain on the pump body. Support the pipe so that the

pump body does not take the weight of piping or fittings.
