Typical Pump Setup
1. Deep wells (25 - 70 ft. lift) where well ID is 4" or
more and a two pipe ejector is installed in the well.
(FOR WELL DEPTHS OF 0-25 FT., SEE
INSTRUCTIONS 025409)
INSTALLING PIPING IN WELL - DEEP WELL
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
NOTE: REPLACE EJECTOR WHEN REPLACING PUMP .

1. Attach the foot valve to the ejector using a
galvanized steel or plastic nipple. Add enough
1 in. pressure pipe and 1-1/4 in suction pipe to
submerge ejector 10 to 15' below pumping water
level, making certain foot valve is at least five (5)
feet from bottom of well. If pressure pipe and
suction pipe of the same diameter are used, be
sure to identify them clearly so that they will be
connected to the proper tappings of the pump.
If a known well leak exists, replace nipple with
21 feet of 1-1/4 in. tail pipe between the ejector
and the foot valve. This will provide a continuous
source of water for the pumping system.
2. Check pipe and foot valve for leaks by filling pipes
with water. A continuous loss of water indicates a
leak in the piping, foot valve, or unions, and must
be corrected.
If no leaks are found, proceed to WELL TO PUMP
CONNECTION (SUCTION PIPE).
