Quick Startup Checklist Find a suitable install location for pump that is protected from the elements (small well or pump house is a good idea), no more than 20 feet of your storage tank/body of water location. If you’re in a frost/ freeze location, ensure that there is proper insulation in the pump house, especially for the 2HP and 3HP models as the inlet face plates are susceptible to cracking if frozen.
INSTALLATION DETAILS -Your pump is designed for use out of the direct elements, sun, rain and snow. Covering or building into a small enclosure is ideal. -Since water does expand when it freezes, care should be taken to winterize the system if being used in a climate that experiences hard freezing.
Piping Example Straight piping from tank to pump without elbow bends is recommended. If elbow bends are necessary on the inlet side, we don’t recommend using more than two elbows due to positive pressure loss.

PRIMING THE PUMP Priming your pressure pump is essential before operation! If you have access to 110vac or 220vac, you can test the pump before hooking up the panels, batteries, and controllers - just be sure to prime it first. Otherwise, prime the pump after hooking everything up to the controller except for the pump.

PRIMING THE PUMP ASSEMBLY **With stainless steel connections, we recommend Thread Sealant and large wrenches. 1) Thread your Tee with Pressure Sensor to the upper outlet of the pump chamber using ample pipe dope/thread sealant. 2) On the left and right sides of the Tee are two openings for small fittings.
