Installation and maintenance tips
Because this is a non-self-priming, tankless model, ensure proper priming before first use and follow standard well-pump safety practices. Verify 115 or 230 V supply matches your electrical setup, and use an appropriate pressure switch to maintain steady pressure without cycling excessively. Regular checks for corrosion protection, seal integrity, and discharge constraints will help maximize lifespan. Remember: without a tank, the system responds to demand directly from the well, so consistent sizing and correct head reach are essential for reliable performance.
