you could also install a one-way check valve to ensure that water doesn't flow back out of your source line.

Had one this past weekend...pump was cycling every few minutes with no water running. Our pipes are below frost line into the basement, and this one had water entering the basement by the pipe entry between the slab and block. Ended up the 1-1/4 pipe had a leak in it just outside the wall. Was fortunate, as the wellhead is buried with a sealed casing. (Casing vent runs into the basement along with the pump piping)
That hand primer pump was exactly the idea I needed! I went and found one online and it just happened to be from your company. Heh what a coincidence.
Super informative videos. We recently bought a house with an irrigation watering system. Two hours ago I didn't even know what a jet pump was, but now I'm feeling confident to at least start trouble shooting, and with some luck maybe even get the damn thing working. Thank you!!

Use a 1/2hp jet pump set to 20 psi for irritation from a stream to 2 faucets 20 feet in separate directions. Ball valve is easiest way to prime. Stream foot sucker closes without draw so priming once per month only. Cleaning sediment out of pump housing is performed by closing faucet valves and opening ball valve until clear.

Make sure if you have a jet pump make sure to keep it warm come winter. I've lost 2 due to freezing water in the area that you prime the pump, froze then busted !!! My own preference is junking the jet pump and get a submersible pump. Just my 2¢. Lot of less headache 👍🏼.

Thanks for your instructions. however somehow air seems to be preventing the jet pump from taking the prime. I have a 2 inch pvc pipe in a lake with a foot valve on the end. the foot valve has a screen on the end to prevent dirt getting unto the pipe. on the top of the pump there is an opening to pour water into the pipe and into the pump. I can pour water into the opening that puts water into the pipe in the lake and into the pump. After putting about a gallon into the pump, the water gets to the top of the opening and I screw the threaded into the opening. There is a pumptrol and a pressure Gage on the pump. I also have a 2 inch flexible hose that connects the pump to a pressure tank. When I activate the pumptrol I can see water moving in the flexible hose, however I can also see air in the hose. I don't understand where the air in the hose attached to pressure tank is coming from. Even if there was air in the hose wouldn't the jet pump still be able to pump water into the pressure tank? Thanks for any advice you can provide!
I love the fact the “expert” is playing with water in front of all of those disconnects.
But how do you prime the pump when the lines run down hill about 100+yards and the lines were completely dry because you just had to change a foot valve and you continue to add water but it seems like all the water is probably just disappearing because you never get to the point where the pump seems to be full of water so you can run it? Is there a way to push compressed air into the line to basically create a siphon so the lines can be full again and you only need to fill the pump? This shouldn’t be this hard and yet… I’ve been without water to my house since January because the damn pump won’t prime.
I have really hard water...build up quickly...with in months...over powers my shallow well pump...is there a pump that does not allow the build up on the impellers and bearings and seizes the pump...it is not cast iron...should I use a cast iron for better hard water resistance....has to be 25ft and 50 psi...
I moved into a house that has a Shallow well/ jet pump but I lose my prime over night. Its starting to get frustrating!
Great video. What is the model pump you used for your video? I have a small 1/2HP pump for water at my dock on a lake and I am looking at adding a second pump which will either supply a water fall or run irrigation. Pump be installed outdoors, will sit approximately 5' above the water level and I would feed water horizontally around 250' and vertically 30'. Do you recommend a shallow well jet pump for the application.
Where are the pumps on your site? I was unable to find them. Please provide a direct link.

Hi Chris. Why wouldn't you just hook a guzzler pump up to prime it? Isn't that simpler? Your pump priming pump is essentially the same thing. Any reason as to why that one over a guzzler?
You were talking about how the well loses its prime because of the air going in between the connections. You didn't mention putting in a check valve so it wouldn't lose its prime. Why?
@RCworstwater

Various situations can occur that lead to loss of prime on an existing pump install, and this video is intended to help people get their system primed and back to operational. This video was not created as an installation guide for a immersible type pumps. Foot valves are a critical component in preventing prime loss in nearly every immersible centrifugal pump on the market. I do not recommend a check valve on the suction line if a foot valve is present, this can lead to difficult troubleshooting down the road.
@obfuscated3090
4 жыл бұрын
Check valves can be problematic and a check valve won't save a leaky system if the leak (for example) is below the check valve because seepage will dump the prime which a non-self-priming pump will not recover. A check valve on the inlet side of a pump (if the pump is not so fitted) prevents the pressure tank from dumping back through a seeping foot valve but doesn't itself maintain prime in the well pipe. It also PREVENTS pour priming unless you have one prime fitting (verticals like shown in the video hold a funnel nicely, and use a gate valve for reliability as shown) for the pump and another for "everything on the well side of the check valve". You can also buy self-priming pumps but they are considerably more expensive. My water tends sandy so my spare pump will be self-priming after I replace a worn foot valve (and all the well piping because PVC is cheap and broken well pipes SUCK to fish out if the owner didn't leave a line, I will use stainless aircraft cable since I'm a jet mech, love overkill and cable is thousands of pounds stronger than rope so a pinched casing should it happen may be overcome with winching. I always buy my next pump including replacement pipe fittings and wiring after installing a replacement since I expect to live long enough to need it and they don't break at convenient times. This worked nicely for thirty-plus years and I do it with all my plumbing parts when I replace wear components.

Does having a pressure tank and a jet pump change the process at all? And if you can't disconnect the suction what is the actual process? I'm trying to hook my 1000l tote up to a tee in the suction, hopefully that will work (or will that just trap air below the tee and cause other issues?). The top of the water in our well is probably 15' lower than the pump right now.

Also have you had any experience with a Gould’s irrigator? I was looking at them for future expansion of my farm irrigation system but currently my system is a J5s and is always pressurized all 1 inch poly pipe. With the currently longest run of 1700ft But I would like to increase my mainline from 1 inch to 1 1/2 inch like the irrigators output and still allow me to only open one of the 1 inch or 3/4 side zones. But I recently talked to Gould’s and they said that the irrigator doesn’t like to be reduced down. Then how are people supposed to control zones that is technically reducing by closing zone valves isn’t it? Can you install an irrigator in a pressurized system with an expansion tank and pressure switch so that it will control the output without putting too much back pressure on the pump?

Just a common beef with a common misconception about priming a pump: At 2:45 you start mentioning "to allow some backpressure...so that it doesnt quickly throw all the water out and lose prime" The line is in the water, so the pump isn't going to magically unpump all the water out of the line and lose prime... the intake is submerged, the line (assumedly) isn't letting air into the line, so applying "backpressure" does zero for you. In fact, it actually retards the pumps' ability to evacuate air from the suction line, so there's no point in creating "backpressure".
What if the suction pipe goes above the pump and then back down to it?
