@3:48 Why are you installing the Check valve on the Inlet Side, the Instructions call for it to be installed on the Outlet side? Instructions said to not use plastic fittings on the pump.
That looks like a pretty efficent pump, can I have a link to it please.....Im setting up an auto watering system for my garden with this equation. It needs the pressure that this pump will provide. Looks great.
Just set up a similar system with two tanks. Problem i'm having is the pump is not holding pressure, so it just stays on and surges up and down to try and keep the pressure. I do have a few leaks and im assuming that is the issue. Will take another crack at it this next weekend. Nice job getting it all in with no leaks except for the faucet.
@@jeffrichards9431 Hello. Yes, I did. I forgot to put a check valve between the water tote and the pump. That check valve is necessary for the pump to hold it's pressure once it fills. It needs to go between the water source and the well pump. Make sure it's flowing in the correct direction (I never made that mistake 🙂). Hope that helps.
This is exactly what I want to do. I like the pump being inside the corner of the workshop. Well done and thanks for your video.

I’m having the same problem. Did you get it fixed?

I’m assuming the hose was used instead of unions and to handle some vibration? What type hose to keep it from collapsing from the suction?
Can you tell me what size fittings you used?
