SELECTING THE CORRECT
JET PUMP SYSTEM
It is important to determine which jet pump
system you need.
A jet pump is a centrifugal pump with a jet
(ejector) assembly.
Houston Pumps sells three types of jet pumps:
Shallow Well Jet Pumps with built-in jet assemblies
for maximum lift of 25'.
Convertible Jet Pumps can be used for Shallow
wells (to 25'), with a bolt on shallow well adapter; or deep well (over 25') applications
with a jet assembly in the well.
Deep Well Jets should only be used on deep well
(over 25') applications with the appropriate
jet assembly.
Use a shallow well pump or a convertible pump
with a Shallow Well Adapter for wells with a maximum suction lift of 25'. This 25'
includes actual vertical lift plus friction loss
in the suction piping.
Shallow well systems are identified by one (1)
pipe going to the well, lake or river. They are good for city water booster systems and pumping from cisterns or tanks.
Deep well jet pumps are used for lifts greater than
25' and must have two pipes going to the
well.
There are two types of deep well jet
assemblies, twin-pipe and packer systems.
Deep well pumps come in both vertical and
horizontal designs and in single and
multi-stage models.
Liquid temperature must not exceed 140° F (60°C).
