FRICTION LOSS IN

PIPE NOT INCLUDED

INSTALLATION STEPS

We recommend that you install your pump in a clean and dry location where there is
adequate room for servicing at a later date. Protection from freezing temperatures and good ventila-
tion should be considered as well, to provide the pump an environment for long life. Locating the pump
as close as possible to the water source will reduce friction losses encountered in the suction pipe.

Friction losses in the suction pipe must be taken into consideration when the horizontal
offset is greater than 50 feet. The suction pipes should be increased from 1” to 1 1/4”. This will reduce
friction losses and allow the pump to give maximum performance.

A new well should be checked to determine that it is free from sand. Sand will damage the seal and
the impeller. Have your well driller clean the well before your installation.

Never run the pump dry

. Damage to the seal may occur. Fill pump body and suction pipe with water

before turning on the power.

THE RUN OF HORIZONTAL PIPE FROM THE TOP OF YOUR WELL INTO

THE HOUSE, WHERE YOUR PUMP WILL BE LOCATED, MUST BE

INSTALLED IN A TRENCH, BELOW THE FROST LEVEL OF YOUR AREA.

VERY IMPORTANT

Please be advised that the Fluomac Electronic unit is a state of the art product and will give you years of
trouble free service. However, if the unit cycles ''ON and OFF'', this means there is a leakage in your plumbing.
For example: A toilet leak, the leakage must be repaired to maintain the system pressure.

Furthermore, if you are pumping water from a sand point or if you have indication that your well may contain
sand, a sand filter must be installed in the suction of the pump.

Sand will damage the unit, due to its abrasive nature and will void warranty. For more information, we are
enclosing a brochure on our Sand Filter model # 750896, which is available from any Burke Retailers or
Wholesalers. In the meanwhile, if you have any questions concerning your pump, please contact us on our
toll free number 1-800-361-1820 before returning the pump to the point of purchase.

The above conditions are not on warranties. The warranty covers manufacturing defects only.
