If your SHUR-DRI Water Pump isn't delivering water to its full capacity, it could be due to: * Corroded or limed steel piping, causing excess friction. Replace it with plastic pipe where possible, or use new steel pipe. * Undersized piping. Re-pipe using the size of the suction and discharge ports on the pump. * Insufficient water supply to the pump. Add additional well points.

If your SHUR-DRI Water Pump motor runs but doesn't deliver water, first stop the pump and check the prime. If that's not the issue, consider these possibilities: * **New Installation Issues:** Improper priming, air leaks in the suction line, a leaking foot valve, or undersized piping. Re-prime the pump according to instructions, check all suction line connections for leaks using soapy water, replace the foot valve if necessary, and ensure the piping matches the pump's port size. * **Existing Installation Issues:** Air leaks in the suction line or a water level below the suction pipe inlet. Check suction line connections and the shaft seal for leaks with soapy water. Lower the suction line into the water and re-prime. Note: If the receding water level in the well exceeds 25', a deep we...
