How to install a water tank with a water pump.

[@jamessumpter4693]

Brother I just moved into the desert and this video is a heaven sent. Knowing your video has successfully supplied my family's home with water and it is a very organized system just as my wife is 😅 Thank you brotha.

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

I am happy that I was able to be of help. Please continue to watch my contents and share if you can.

[@kevinmorris4560]

I agree with u sir his videos are timely u can get help as a diy keep it mr plumber.

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

Greetings brother. All is still well with your water pump set up?

[@ofcv1238]

Great video…i struggle self-documenting…we need a phone necklace for improvised badge camera 😂

[@leonardgriffiths5532]

I love the setup but I would put a socket union at the outlet of the watertank...To facilitate easy disconnection of the tank to the line...To clean the thank as the needs be.

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

1 is actually there. It's right before the water pump. Didn't want to use 2 socket unions so close to each other. Thanks for the comment though. Please like, subscribe and share if you haven't as yet.

I see you didn't watch the video. He showed 2 socket unions

When do u need to add a pressure tank ?

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

Most of the time the pressure tank is sold with the pump. You just need to buy that type when making your purchase.

Great job… Can you mention the specs of that particular pump? And where did you source it from?

1 HP, 220Volt. Bought it at Carlissa. Please like and subscribe if you haven't as yet.

[@gfj8438]

Is there a need for a check valve between the pump and the tank??

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

Yes. Emediately where the water exists the tank or after where the water exists the pump to prevent the water from running the opposite direction when the pump is off.

[@garymack4650]

Did you use 3/4" throughout the installation

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

No I did not. I reduced it when connecting it back to the main and where the water enters the tank. Thank you for your comment. I appreciate it 🙏

[@kendraduncan4950]

My concern is that the pump will get wet

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

Good evening. This 1 is made for outdoor so it will be fine. You could always make a little housing over it though.

[@kendraduncan4950]

Ok thanks

[@1adhaye414]

Do we need to add a none returned valve on the main pipe?

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

Yes.

[@azteckjumbie9344]

How do you stop the water from circulating back into the tank

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

Use a non return valve where needed

[@dionshow9508]

Is the tank fed from mains water from the street ?

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

Yes that's correct

[@ronpavel]

Very nice video sir. I have a question how do you prevent the pump to run when the tank is empty?

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

There is a electric device that you can buy and connect it the pump them lower it inside the tank almost at the bottom. When the water isn't touching it what it does is turn off the pump preventing it from burning.

[@rasheen100]

One of this device is on this tank or no

[@rasheen100]

And what's it called

[@fitzroyfrancis7896]

Very good I have a house in Manchester, which is built with a tank underground. But i need to have the water pump out when there is no NWC water. I will definitely need to contact you.

[@fitzroyfrancis7896]

Thank you partner. Just subscribed. I will be contacting you.

[@Nick-ij7rv]

Great video. Somebody I can understand finally 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 One question. When the smart head is stuck above 2 and not pushing the water through the house what should we do ?

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

Get it checked out by a technician to see if it's still good and have it replaced if it's gone defective.

[@anandramdoyal1145]

Pump cover from rain&dust

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

The client will need to buy 1. I had advised.

[@kevinmorris4560]

Mr plumber do u have any vídeo of installing a 220 like this one ,for intake from the underground tank to black tank on top of house , we don't have nwc . anticipate ur response mr plumber thanks

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

I can get a video with it from a property I did it on. What should I name that video?

[@kevinmorris4560]

U could name it " how conect ur rain water storage from underground house to ur tank on top of ur house ,with a 220 ,1hp pump with smart head " Mr Plumber many of ur viewers don't get water from NWC water supply . so this video would basically help to promote off grid water storage... And i can safely say water locks offs are pretty common in St.Ann for example. Some one out there must agree some what .

[@zavnet]

Hi could you do a video of the pump working so I can see what the water pressure is like?

[@flyguy5941]

Good job! I’m working on a similar set up but in the basement due to freezing issues. One suggestion, install a large filter after the pump for cleaner water.

[@jonelesuma1384]

Just a question - what happens if there is no power (electricity off), will the taps still have water (because the tank is on the roof)

[@plumbinginjamaica5381]

Yes. It will still flow because of gravity. A back up power supply is always a good thing though
