Well Installation
For pumping depths less than 25 feet, follow a shallow well set-up. For pumping depths of 20-90 feet,
implement a deep well set-up. Refer to
Shallow Well
1. Place the red rubber gasket over the venturi.
• Make sure the hole sizes match.
2. Attach the injector assembly to the front of the pump casing, using the provided washers and bolts.
• Be sure the "bottom" label is at the bottom of the pump.
NOTE: Any extra venturis and nozzles in the injector kit are not needed for this application.
Driven Wells
Refer to "Typical Installations" on page
1. Drive the well point into the ground.
• Refer to the well point manufacturer's instructions.
• Ensure the well point is deep enough to bore through the water bearing formation below the
water table but does not exceed 25 feet (7.6 m) of depth.
• If an individual well point does not supply enough water, consider a multi-point installation.
2. Install enough piping to reach the water source and leave 1 foot (30 cm) of protruding pipe.
• The rise pipe should be galvanized in approximately 5 feet (1.5 m) sections.
3. Attach a 1¼-inch 90° elbow to the end of each pipe.
4. Attach a 1¼-inch check valve to the 1¼-inch galvanized nipple.
5. Attach a 1¼-inch male PVC adapter to the 1¼-inch check valve.
Drilled Wells
1. Find the total length needed for 1¼-inch PVC pipe and coupling(s).
• Measure the distance from the top to bottom of the well and subtract 5 feet.
2. Assemble the foot valve, 1¼-inch male PVC adapter, and well piping.
IMPORTANT: Ensure any burrs or shavings from cutting the pipes are completely removed to pre-
vent damage to the pump.
3. Firmly clamp the unfinished pipe end with a pipe clamp 1 foot (30 cm) from the top of the pipe.
4. Lower the foot valve end of the piping assembly into the well.
5. Install the well seal and a well vent tube.
• Ensure the foot valve is suspended 4 feet (1.2 m) from the well bottom.
• The 1¼-inch pipe should extend 1 foot (30 cm) above the seal.
• The 1-inch pipe should extend 10 inches (25 cm) above the seal.
6. Attach a 1¼-inch 90° elbow to the end of each pipe.
Deep Well
1. Install a 1¼-inch foot valve to a 1¼-inch close nipple, then attach the nipple to the bottom of the
injector assembly.
• The bottom of the injector assembly is the end with the single hole.
2. Thread a 1-inch x 6-inch NPT into the smaller hole of the injector assembly.
3. Thread a 1¼-inch male PVC adapter over the venturi tube and into the larger hole of the injector
assembly.
