These pumps will operate satisfactorily at vertical lifts up to
25 feet when driven at full speed. In offset installations, friction
losses in the suction hose must be taken into consideration.
a ) PUMP LOCATION: The pump should be located on a
firm and level foundation in order to provide the best pos-
sible working conditions. If the pump is not properly
placed or blocked, it is liable to creep due to vibration.
Locating the pump as close as possible to the source
of water supply reduces the friction loss in the suction
hose and provides for maximum capacities.
b ) SUCTION HOSE: The suction hose should be the same
size as that of the pump suction tapping and should be
checked for collapsed inner lining, cuts, breaks, etc. If
the pump is installed any appreciable distance away
