yes

So called experts claim u need a pressure switch. I dont have one. That u need a pressure tank. I dont have one. So yes it works great.

Glad it was helpful!

They CREATE bigger projects for themselves. In this case, next time they’ll need to re-pipe several pipes as there’ll be no pipe left for him to cut!

@@jrm163don’t let him see this comment. He’s “installed 37,000 pumps” so you should “stick to your day job” My pump needs to be winterized every year and part of that includes letting the check valve drain all prime so I would need to re-plumb every year if it weren’t for unions.

I already said that in my description to make sure the power is off and use a tester to confirm that power is off.

Before

@@waterboysprinkler thanks

No I don't believe in pvc unions they leak it's much better just cut it out replace it with a coupling And besides it's always better to re pipe when you replace a pump. And that's based on 47 years of experience and thousands and thousands of pumps that I replaced.

What do you think were stupid lets just work on the pump with the power on and get electrocuted We use something called a Meter an electrical tester Don't attempt the job if you don't have an electrical tester

If you would have read my description you will see that I mentioned shut the power that's what I said in my description if you looked at that

Pumps don't like to 'suck' from a distance. They will push water much better, so pump near the source.

Experience stick to your regular job and hire a company that knows what to do

@@davidluxton-smith7738 another person that doesn't know what they're talkin about I ran 1000 ft suction line on a job plenty of water it's just called experience that's all

So now you know what pumps like what are they people

You can install a pump a mile away if you know what you're doing

Yes you definitely want to run your wires in PVC conduit they must be at least a number 12 gauge and it cannot be too long of a distance either you need a 20 amp breaker to run that pump on 220vac

@@waterboysprinkler Wow quick reply thank you. The run is about 110ft its an older fla house so it goes from the pump to the breaker inside but like i said I used that white romex i thinks its called. Its usually seen inside new house construction in the walls for like outlets. Im just not sure if using that type of wire is the right dtuff or not causing the breaker to blow. The breakers are 2--110v making it 220v i guess. Could it be wired incorrectly when the pump company replaced the pump? Btw Im sorry for bothering you. Its just that you know what your doing and I trust what you have to say...Thanks alot

@@beachside1 some pumps you can run on 110 you just have to manually switch it inside the back of the pump is, you can check yours and see

You cannot skip a zone with this mechanical timer, you need to convert to a digital controller. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fbOclsKZ0ODPcnU.html
