WATER CONNECTION COMPONENTS
The pressure requirements put on the pump are directly
affected by the diameter of pipe being used, as well as,
by the water flow rate through the pipe. The worksheet
included in manual 2110-078 should guarantee that the
well pump has enough capacity. It should also ensure

that the piping is not undersized, which would create too
much pressure due to friction loss. High pressure losses
due to undersized pipe will reduce efficiency and
require larger pumps and could also create water noise
problems.
