Hi there:
So I am planning to draw water out of a river close to my cottage and purchased a 4 inch 1 hp submersible Sta-Rite Signature 2000 with a Franklin motor. I needed to mount it horizontally in the river since the river get's down to about 3 feet at low water in the summer. My question is, with the pump mounted horizontally, will the check valve in the pump work properly? I seem to be losing pressure and am pretty sure there is no leak in the poly.
Thanks,
