    1/2 HP increase yield more volume?

    OK that's an important distinction. All my pumps only have impellers. Do they make pumps with an injector mounted on the pump?

    1/2 HP increase yield more volume?

    OK just to confirm the terminology here. A deep well jet pump is a pump that is converted from a shallow to a deep well by relocating the injector from the pump to the well. Question: Can a shallow well pump have or benefit from an injector mounted on the pump?

    1/2 HP increase yield more volume?

    Looks like I should be able to see the nozzle portion of the jet assembly inside the pump. I don't see anything in my pumps just the metal case of the pump.

    1/2 HP increase yield more volume?

    Put the injector down the hole and its called a deep well configuration. If the injector is on the pump its a shallow well. This is making sense now. I don't see the injector part on my pump must be an internal piece. Thanks.

    1/2 HP increase yield more volume?

    Illustration on the left would have an injector on the pump as I understand. If you take it off and put in down the well that makes it a deep well configuration.

    1/2 HP increase yield more volume?

    I'm going to look into this idea. Most likely requires a control module. Hopefully they come in 115V. Thnks!

    1/2 HP increase yield more volume?

    So the injector can be down in the well as per a 2 pipe system OR on the front of the pump. My Berkley pump does not have the long nose front end hence no injector. I have a no name stand by pump in the well now with a long nose and my water pressure is a lot higher. Without taking apart I...

    1/2 HP increase yield more volume?

    OK I need to go back and research the configurations. I was of the opinion the jet sat only down the hole via the 2 pipe system. The Simer 3210C has the jet kit as an option ie add on to use down the hole. If I understand correctly it can be added to the pump itself. Thanks for your time.

    1/2 HP increase yield more volume?

    No jet in use at this time due to the small diameter of the well casing.

    1/2 HP increase yield more volume?

    I believe the technical name of the well is a pit well. The jet pump sits in the pit. I'm researching these packers now. Never heard of them before. May be a cost effective solution however I would still have the maintenance of the jet pump. https://www.lockewell.com/pdf/goulds/jet_assembly.pdf

    1/2 HP increase yield more volume?

    Correct the jet pump is sitting above the well. Yes lots more to a system than just HP. Wondering if only adding HP will increase volume. as my options are limited and I can get a brand new Simer for $100. Advertised as a deep well jet pump up to 70 feet if you use all the kit ie., injector. I...

    1/2 HP increase yield more volume?

    I have a 1/2HP jet pump working at a depth of 33 feet. Max for this application is 25. Simer makes a deep well jet pump 3210C with a 1HP motor. Problem is I can't use the injector option that comes with the pump as the case diameter is 4inches. Will I benefit from just increasing the HP? Horse...

    Pipe diameter and water

    I have a 1" suction pipe into the jet pump and a 1/2" fitting coming out to the pressure tank. Based on volume demands eg., watering horse trough, I would add more volume to the tank and stabilize the water pressure if I switch from 1/2" to 1" ?
