Jet Pumps from Goulds & Pedrollo
Jet Pumps specifically designed for Homes, Cottages, and Irrigation systems. Jet pumps are mounted above the well, either in the home or in a well house, and draw the water up from the well through suction. Jet pumps create suction by spinning an impeller. The impeller moves the water from the well through a narrow jet mounted in the pump. This constriction at the jet cause the speed of the wate to increase much like a garden hose nozzle. As the water leaves the jet, a partial vacuum is created that sucks the water from the well. Behind the jet is a venturi that slows the water down and increases pressure. Jet pumps generally require that they are primed since the pump uses water to draw water. A check valve should be installed in the feed line to the pump to keep the water from draining back to the well. |
