This a question more than a comment: just had a well drilled- 600’ 1 1/2 gpm- probably 80’ max from well to house. Figured I’d be installing 3/4 hp pump but wondering what size wire to use. I am doing all the installation work myself- hopefully with help- and I do know how to do plumbing and electrical. Thanks for any advice, I liked your video and the question/answers.

Put a t wider than the casing at the end of your gas pipe so it can’t fall into the well.

I like the idea to put 1" Polypropylene Conduit to protect The Wire. I wonder why you did not keep the conduit all the way to the top? Also, there is 1-1/4" CTS 250 PSI Poly Pipe available - why not to use it? It will not reduce the diameter from the pump and can withstand more pressure.

We have codes. Have to follow them.

Up where I am the casing is steel . Little tougher to drill I like the idea of sleeving the pump wire I've had wires chafe and break I'm sure you did it but smearing some silicone grease on that adapter and o rig is a good idea

Thankyou, I stared sleeving the wires for the same exact reason.

what about the Check Valve on top of the pump
@rogermahler96866 ай бұрын
Many Municipalities require the well head to be 18" above grade to prevent surface water contamination (from rain and flooding) cutting below grade is a no no.

Makes sense. This was in the middle of a field and did what the owner requested.

I noticed that you used Hose Clamps. Are Pinch Clamps a bad idea?
@MooneysExcavating Жыл бұрын
I just rather hose clamps where you can really tighten them. This line has constant pressure.

The pitless adapter did not look perfectly well fitted. It was possible to move. It actually looked as if the outer concave piece was oriented 90 degrees wrong and had cut into the gasket? Could that be the case?

Hi Great video! do you think the pitless adapter will work on an above ground jet pump or would it suck air?

I am not sure honestly. We only use them for submerged pumps.

kind of a dumb question, but howd you get the electrical tape off the pitless adapter? just yanked it off?
