Higher horsepower models of the same categories may 0250 feet: Deep well submersible pump. be substituted for jet pumps. 250+ feet: Call The Technical Service Line: 1.888.885.9254 "Pumping water level" is the depth to the water while the well is being pumped. It is usually deeper than the depth to the water Flow Req. (GPM) 5 Pumping Water Level in Feet 15 25 50 80 100 150 200 250 when the pump is not running. For a lake or cistern installation, it is the depth to the surface of the water. For Jet pumps, it is the vertical distance from the pumping water level to the suction opening of the pump. For Submersible pumps, it is the vertical distance from the pumping water level to the point of water usage.

For replacement installations, use the equivalent style and horsepower pump, providing it was suitable when it was operational. NOTE: A foot valve or check valve is required for proper operation of any system. The suction line must extend at least 5' below the pumping water level and be at least 10' above the well bottom. 12 A,E C,E G G,H H H I,J J J 13 B,E C,F G G,H H,I I,J J J J 14 B,E C,F G I I,J J J J J 15 B,E C 16 C,E C IJ 17 C,E C NOTE: For depths greater than 250', consult tech support Shallow Well Convertible Deep Well Jet Pumps Jet Pumps Submersible Pumps 2 HOW MUCH WATER IS REQUIRED The gpm (gallons per minute) of the pump must equal the total number of fixtures. Fixtures include all faucets, toilets, and water A = RJS-50-PREM ½ hp D = RJC-50-PREM ½ hp B = RJS-75-PREM ¾ hp E = RJC-75-PREM ¾ hp C = RJS-100-PREM 1 hp F = RJC-100 1 hp G = RL12G05 ½ hp H = RL12G07 ¾ hp I = RL12G10 1 hp J = RL12G15 1½ hp consuming appliances (do not include water treatment appliances, such as a hot water tank or water filter). Example: A house with one full bathroom (sink, tub/shower, toilet), kitchen sink, basement sink, outside faucet, washing machine, and dishwasher would require 8 gpm. 3 MINIMUM WELL DIAMETER 2½" Jet pumps in shallow well applications (depth less than 25') should be installed using 1-1/4" suction piping with a foot valve. 4" Convertible jet pumps used in deep well applications (depth greater than 25') and deep well submersible pumps. TANK CHART NOTE: Refer to Step 2 above. The easy way to size a tank is take the gpm system requirement that you determined in Step 2, multiply by 3 and go to the next largest tank size. Example: 8 gpm x 3 = 24 gallons therefore use an RL34 tank.
