1Thread 1-1/4" male PVC
adapter into foot valve.
Hand tighten, then tighten
1/4 turn with crescent
wrench.
Subtract five feet from the
depth of your well (See

of Your Well"). This is the

Cement as many coup-

takes to equal the depth

feet, then firmly clamp

total length of rigid PVC pipe and
couplings to cement onto the 1-1/4"
male PVC adapter. 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
down into the well.

REMINDER: ALL JOINTS AND CONNECTIONS MUST BE AIRTIGHT. A SINGLE PIN-

HOLE LEAK WILL PREVENT THE PROPER OPERATION OF THE PUMP. USE THREAD

COMPOUND ON ALL THREADED CONNECTIONS UNLESS SPECIFIED OTHERWISE.

SHALLOW WELL PUMP INSTALLATION

(4" DIAMETER CASED WELL)

For wells 25 feet or less in depth, the ejector may be
attached to the front of the tank-mounted jet pump. For
lower depths, the ejector must be placed down inside
the well (see DEEP WELL PUMP INSTALLATION). All
materials with part numbers are quality Water Ace parts.
General Materials
•One Jet Tank System #R-30-T7. Includes: 1/3 HP
jet pump mounted on a 7-gallon diaphragm pressure
tank, pressure gauge, and twin ejector with gasket,
bolts, venturi tubes, and foot valve.
•One can PVC cement (read instructions carefully)
•One can thread compound (read instructions carefully)
•Two male 1-1/4" PVC adapters
•Enough rigid 1-1/4" PVC pipe and couplings to reach
from bottom of well to pump.
•One 4" well seal #RWS4-1012 with vent plug
•One 1-1/4" PVC elbow
Tools Needed for all pump installations
Pipe wrench, pipe clamp, crescent wrench, slot screw-
driver, 24-tooth hacksaw, knife or round file.

PIPING

Plastic PVC pipe is shown in the illustrations, but
galvanized steel pipe may be used if desired. All piping
must be clean and free of all foreign matter to prevent
clogging. ALL JOINTS AND CONNECTIONS IN THE
WELL ASSEMBLY MUST BE AIRTIGHT. Even a pin-
hole leak will prevent the proper operation of the pump
(this is the most common problem). Use thread com-
pound on all threaded joints unless specified otherwise.

DRAINING FOR SERVICING OR FOR WINTER

The pump should be drained before it is disconnected
for servicing or if it is in danger of freezing. To drain:
• Remove drain plug from bottom of pump case.
• Remove discharge tee to vent the pump.
• Drain all piping to a point 3 feet below ground level.
