APPLICATION
The shallow well jet pump is ideal for the supply of fresh water to rural
homes, farms and cabins. This pump is suitable for installations where
the vertical distance from the pump to the water level does not exceed
*25 ft. (7.6m), including drawdown. In off-set installations, friction losses
in the suction pipe must be taken into consideration. Refer to Table 2,
Friction Loss.
*Less at high altitudes.
