If the line is outside, sloping will prevent the risk of freezing/braking if there is not water in the line! Inside, it just prevents risk of drips and bacteria growing in what could be stagnant water.

How can you find your submersible water well pump if there is no pipe out of the ground?

There has to be a casing for the pump to be in. There should be something showing above ground. How is the power run to it, does that point you in a direction? Where is the water tank, where does the line coming in point to?


Why is the suction line of a pump larger than the discharge line?

It is common practice to specify the pump suction line one size larger than the pump discharge line in order to increase the Net Positive Suction Head available (NPSHA) to the pump. A smaller suction line the same pipe size as the discharge line would result in more pressure drop in the suction line and reduce the amount of head available to the suction side of the pump. This in turn would result in an operating point closer to cavitation of the pump.


How can you determine if the fuel pump is out?

1)Look for your fuel line after the fuel pump(usually in the tank or close to it) 2)Loosen the clamp on the line. 3)Remove fuel pipe 4)Turn on your ignition - fuel should flow with some pressure. (Remember to consider safety - no lights, fire and face open fuel pipe away from meltable objects and yourself)


What is a fuel line and fuel pump?

Both are parts of a car. The fuel pump is either situated in the fuel tank or sometimes in the engine of the car and works to pump the fuel from the tank to and around the engine. The fuel line is a thin long pipe witch the fuel does travel through to get from the fuel tank to the engine. the fuel pump sends the fuel through the fuel line.

How do you test if a hot water recirculating pump is working properly?

there should be a pressure gauge on a pipe leaveing the pump, or if it dumps into a catch pan then watch the flow,


When the pump is not running what is the water pressure at the output pipe of the pump?

When the pump is not running, the water pressure at the output pipe of the pump will be equal to the static pressure of the water source acting on the pipe. This static pressure varies depending on the elevation and depth of the water source.


How do you pipe recirculating hot water?

Go from the top of your hot water tank and make your line go to every fixture and after last fixture go back to the tank and connect back into pump, make sure you install a check valve on line at pump

From top of fuel tank connect hose to top carburetor connection> Larger pipe. from bottom of carb [smaller outlet pipe connect hose to primer pump in. From out of primer pump connect to return hose to lower tank connection.


Maytag side by side has a new ice maker and a new water pump but the water is not getting to the ice maker what should you check next?

The water pipe from the pump to the ice maker is quite thin; check it to see that it is not plugged. Check to see that there is water also at the inlet to the water pump. If there is not, check that the pipe leading to the water pump is not plugged.


Why in centrifugal pump control valve use in delivery line?

Because your process have differents points of operation (flows, pressures) and the pump only one point (intersection curves process and HD pump). We can have others scenarios with a recirculation pipe and control valve.
