Q: What makes it a “convertible” jet pump?
A: A convertible jet pump can be configured for either shallow or deep well use, depending on your water source and depth requirements.
Q: How much water pressure does it provide?
A: The system maintains consistent pressure using the 6-gallon pre-charged pressure tank, suitable for typical residential water demands.
Q: What is the tank made of?
A: The included pressure tank is pre-charged and built for durability, helping reduce pump cycling and extend pump life.
Q: What power supply is required?
A: The pump runs on 115V single-phase power, and should be properly wired with a dedicated breaker.
Q: Is the pump self-priming?
A: Yes, it is self-priming after the initial fill for both shallow and deep well applications.
Q: Does it come pre-assembled?
A: Basic assembly and plumbing are required, but the system is designed for straightforward setup with standard tools.
Q: Can this unit run continuously?
A: It is built for regular on/off cycles with the pressure tank, but should never run dry to avoid pump damage.
Q: What kind of maintenance is needed?
A: Routine maintenance includes checking pressure tank charge, cleaning the intake, and inspecting for leaks or wear.
