The pump on the good ol well finally died. It was cheaper to go ahead and replace it with another like model versus buying just the pump itself. This is a very easy DIY project for those who have a well, but paid someone else to put it in. If your pump fails, follow this quick video to see how easy it is to remove a hose and replace it onto a new one. Save yourself a little money.

Just bought one of these to pressurize my irrigation. I also have just the pump for extracting from the pond. Thanks. Really informative.

You can also prime it from the top of the spigot. The plug is for people who have different setups in which you cant fill from the outlet.

Adding some data to videos about this pump and tank combo: I've measured with a fluke clamp meter the inrush/max as 40A 120Vac.

The rear of the tank has a sharader valve fitting where you're supposed to pressurize with air up to 23#.

I have the same as the New Pump . The black box on top has a start capacitator you can replace when it goes bad . $10 . The bladder inside my tank went bad at 2 years old . To avoid burning out the motor and start capacitator unplug the pump , open the water valve and add air to the back of the tank . Black round plastic thing on the back on the tank unscrews showing a tire air valve . The pressure gage should drop to 20 psi . Close water valve . add air to 40 psi .I have to add air every two days . I'm sure the bladder can be replaced but I'm too lazy to try it . Have fun ....

How deep is this thing pulling ?? And what’s on the bottom of the 1” pipe that’s in the well casing

Can it be hard wired instead of using the cord

Can you use flexibility pex instead of PVC?

You may just need a new capacitor on the old pump

Symptom like that means the us$5 capacitor is busted.
