Seaffng Pipe Joints
Use only Teflon i.,, tape or Teflon i_, based joint compounds
for making all threaded connections to the pump itself. Do
not use pipe ioint compounds on plastic pumps: they can
react with the plastic in pump components. Make sure that
all pipe joints in the suction pipe are air tight as well as
water tight. If the suction pipe can suck ai;, the pump will
not be able to puff water from the well.
14. Screw 1" male PVC adapter
into discharge tee outlet.
