What other plumbing supply I will need besides what ships with this pump? My main water line is 25 feet away.

Buy the t to tie in then add a shut off then copper tubing and any.other fittings you might need. PVC for water discharge. Also any brackets for pvc

3/4 in copper or equivalent, backflow protector, a couple check valves if tieing into same pipe as original pump. Possibly a shock arrestor like you would find for a washing machine. Put that close to the sj10

A "discharge hose" and garden hose from your local hardware store. I glued on a check valve to the outlet in which I hooked up the discharge hose to.

Hi, there are a lot of parts that you will need to install this pump including 1 1/2" PVC parts. You'll need a three-quarter inch T to come off of your main water line. You will need to run three-quarter inch copper or pex waterline to the unit. I always install it with three-quarter inch pex it's much easier. To install this pump because you have to sweat copper and also have pex tools you must have some general knowledge of plumbing and some relatively expensive tools.

When you recieve your pump you will have the full instructions on installation. The main parts you will need are as follows: water supply of at least 3/4" line (for minimum pressure to supply the pump), shut off valve, and discharge line ex: 1 1/2" pvc or of equal material to tie into a sump charge line or some means to divert it to the outside and materials to tie everything together( elbows, glues, etc) plus a garden hose. Any tools to use for running plumbing. Depending on what codes are recommened. I hope this helps you. Not to difficult to install with some basic plumbing skills.

You'll need at least 25 ft of 3/4" pex or cooper line and even more to bring it down to sump. I suggest you use shark bites connections. You'll also need 1.5" PVC for the exiting water and a y connection to connect back into original PVC pipe. Oh and don't forget PVC cement and primer. Good luck

In addition to what was listed above, I included a 1/2 hose bib within 2 feet of the inlet water connection to ensure I had no excuses to test the system monthly. Additionally, because my sump is in the garage, I insulated all the water lines. Finally, I opted for a new lid for the sump itself. If I was doing it again, I would actually use plexiglass for the pump lid. The only downside with this unit is it does make it rather difficult to see inside your sump to check your primary pump, especially if you mount the back up on top of the lid as I was forced to do.

I hope I understand your question correctly. At 5 feet above the water surface, these pumps experience a reduction in flow of about 50%. Example a pump rated at 700gph actually has a flow of 400gph at 5 feet above waterline. To visualize the flow, imagine your garden hose pointed upward with the valve about 1/3 open... at 400gph the stream of water would rise about 6 inches before topping out. If that is enough water then a 700gph pump is enough. If you buy a 950gph or 1200gph you can restrict the outflow with a plastic valve from your hardware store if it is too much. If you already have the fountain, try connecting your garden hose and adjust the tap to the ideal flow rate. Then disconnect the hose while leaving the water running and then let the water run into a pail for 1 minute. Then measure the water that has ran into the pail and multiply by 60 to get gph. Then take that total and multiply by 1.75 and also by 2. The two calculated numbers will give you an idea of the minimum sized pump and the maximum sized pump you will need.

Because of the distance from the well I would suggest a bigger pump for you application. the manufacture I would also recommend, as I have 2 of their pumps, and I am very happy, with their products, and performance. T

sorry i don't know. my hose is only 25 feet long and i only have two hoses.

Please send question through your Amazon purchase order, that I can attach the plumbing spec to you. Thanks.

Hi, I have a 75', I would enter 100' Gilmore in your search and try again. I might suggest 2- 50', these hoses are heavy and then you could choose 100' or 50' depending on where you want water. It would probably cost a little more due to the extra hose fittings, but it could be more managable. I would hunt around on Amazon a little more, I'm sure there is 100', could be they are sold out right now.

20 feet should not be a problem we possibly have a 30 feet right now and I have no issues with it the pump works great

You must have a 3/4" water line all the way from the main to the pump otherwise the HB1000 will starve and not pump water.

Not exactly sure what you mean. You have to use the special by-pass valve assembly on each sink you or tub you want to use. I have them only on sinks for easy access. The farthest sink would be approximately 40 ft from the HWH.

Exactly? Gosh, I don't know. Surely 25 feet. It would depend on the angle, too. Mine is sloped slightly downward on the discharge side. Level, or slanted UP, would be a wider coverage. Buy it, you'll like it.

hello. the line is 19 inches....i think it wont work. I went to lowes and got 1-foot extension lines. you need room to work with. also make sure you screw the copper rods tightly to the faucet or it we leak and you have tpo take the whole thing off to fix it. if you have any other questions u can call me . dave 818 804-1729. good luck.

As others have answered, for safety you're good; more so since "starting" is a short duration event. Functionally, 25 feet is about 50 milliohms, round-trip, so line drop is under 2 volts (0.05 ohms * 35A). This means that the contribution to voltage-drop is minimal. That can be critical with compressors and pumps.

The pump has an inch and a half or inch and a quarter outlet. You will need to reduce down to 3/4 and add a male threaded nipple designed for hose attachment. Home Depot or Lowe's can show you exactly what you need.

We use sewer solutions with our RV; sometimes the sewer is 15 to 20 feet away and uphill. It has always worked perfectly. Info that came with our SS indicate you can use PVC and pump uphill for quite a distance.

The power is I think a 14 or 16 ga 4 conductor nothing special you can get from lowes. The copper is I think 1/4 and 3/8? I can be wrong but something close. And the flair out the ends and you can use the caps that come on the unit and just insulate the pipe how ever you see fit for the install. Don't forget the drain!. Also I don't think that you can go more than 25' with out having to adds one freon. 26 28 maybe no prob. I would pull a vacuum hook the lines up with an oil loop. It's like a 1 to 2' loop in the line to keep oil from doing something? Sorry can't remember why but I know you need to. It will add some more ft' to your install. Just read if you have to have it or not? I did because I was only 12' away. I hope that this didn't cause more questions than answers. You can go to lowes and get copper line and then caps that cover the unit during shipping you put on the copper lines then flair the ends out. Hook up vacuum down then let out the freon. Have fun.

Go with two 25 footers. If you ruin one end, you've only lost half of the hose.

We have ours on a raised patio, to get there we ran a long hose from the faucet under a deck and up to the patio. This makes our leader 25 feet or more. Works fine.
