INSTALLATION & OPERATION
SHALLOW WELL PUMP INSTALLATION
The 3/4 HP, 1 HP, 1-1/2 HP, and 2 HP pumps are all recommended
for inground lawn sprinkler applications. The pumps with higher
horsepower provide greater pumping capacity.
Materials required for all well types:
One can PVC cement (read instructions carefully),
One can thread compound (read instructions carefully),
One 1-1/2" foot valve,
Three male 1-1/2" PVC adapters,
Enough rigid 1-1/2" PVC pipe and couplings to reach from
bottom of well to pump,
One 1-1/2" well seal,
One 1-1/2" PVC elbow,
One 1-1/2" discharge tee,
One 1-1/2" pipe plug,
Enough rigid 1-1/2" PVC pipe to reach from pump
to service line.
Tools needed for all pump installations:
Pipe wrench,
Pipe clamp,
Crescent wrench,
Slot screwdriver,
24-tooth hacksaw,
Knife or round file.

2.
The total length of rigid PVC pipe and couplings to cement
onto the 1-1/2" male PVC adapter is equal to the operating
depth (See Determine Operating Depth).
Cement one section of rigid PVC pipe to the PVC adapter
which is connected to the foot valve, then lower the whole
assembly into the well, foot valve first. Firmly clamp the
end of the rigid PVC pipe with a pipe clamp to prevent the
assembly from sliding further into the well.
3.
Cement as many couplings and sections of rigid PVC pipe as
it takes to equal the operating depth, then firmly clamp the
assembly with a pipe clamp to prevent the assembly from
sliding down into the well.
