Jan.30,2010Once it's all connected the boys made a quick test to be sure the pump would operate and ran it to see how much flow we had. They ran the pump a good 30 minutes with no shortage of water.pklongballFeb 26, 2010

Jan.30,2010I'm holding the pressure switch that will operate the pump control. I saw no brand name or where it was made and the install booklet disappeared before I could find it. But I know it will start the pump at about 20 psi and stop it at about 55 psi.pklongballFeb 26, 2010

Jan.30,2010Here the creww is connecting the pvc piping. No yellow for the electric part just blue for all of it. I was not thrilled with the electric piece of the work and I will make "my" changes soon now that we have the system operatingpklongballFeb 26, 2010
