I gave this pump a 4 instead of 5 only because for the normal home owner wanting to install his/her own well pump the instructions are horrible or non existing! I would give this pump a solid 5 however because the quality, packaging, price was awesome! The shipping was pretty quick also. I wish I would have seen a spot to chat with an agent when I was trying to make the right selection although or a really good specs high light. Would be nice if you could at least put in information on what the well specs etc was and as a result of entering said information the computer kick back best choices. 👍 More information would be great and is needed. When it comes to your product it's well made and nicely priced! I am a small business owner so I do well pumps sometimes so I'm always looking for good quality for my customers and you guys definitely hit a high mark from us!
I have a 2-inch well using the packer system, a system that has only one pipe going down the center of the well, and uses the space between the well's casing and the center pipe for one of the two required connections to the pump. It is for lawn irrigation, and there is no pressure tank. I don't know why, but this packer system used to be popular, but not anymore. A new deep well jet assembly now costs more than this pump costs (and the pump is still needed of course). I can't just switch over to this pump's ejector because it requires a 4-inch well casing, and mine is only 2 inches. Years ago, I bought a relatively inexpensive pump with the packer style well jet assembly at a big box hardware store, but over the years the pump's seal started leaking badly. The leak reduced the pump's performance to the point it was unusable. I took a gamble and installed this pump, leaving the well alone. I didn't use the ejector included with this pump. Thankfully it is working well. The original pump did a little better in a section of sprinklers where the flow demand is high, but this pump works just as well if not better in other sections. This pump is very quiet - much quieter than the original. I had trouble with the power connections. The terminal screws were very tight, and I could not remove one of them. Because of that, I kept the power cord included with the pump, cutting off the plug and splicing it to my 220-volt wiring.
