DEEP WELL PUMP INSTALLATION
(4" DIAMETER CASED WELL)
For wells over 25, but not exceeding 80 feet in depth, the 1 HP RC10
Convertible Deep Well Pump is recommended. However, the 1/2 HP
RC5 Deep Well Pump may also be used for depths not exceeding
70 feet. Materials with part numbers are quality Water Ace parts.
General materials needed for either the RC5 or RC10
convertible pumps
• One can PVC cement (read instructions carefully)
• One can thread compound (read instructions carefully)
• Two 1" female PVC adapters
• Enough rigid 1-1/4" PVC pipe and couplings to reach from
bottom of well to pump (delivery pipe)

• One 1-1/4" male PVC adapter
• One pressure regulator Kit RPR (includes fi ttings, tubing, and
1/4" plug)
• One pressure gauge RG-2

REMINDER: ALL JOINTS AND CONNECTIONS MUST BE AIRTIGHT. A SINGLE PINHOLE
LEAK WILL PREVENT THE PROPER OPERATION OF THE PUMP. USE THREAD COMPOUND
ON ALL THREADED CONNECTIONS UNLESS SPECIFIED OTHERWISE.
