Q: How long did it take to replace the pump with a Grundfos SQ?
A: 30 minutes
Q: How long did it take to replace the pump with a Grundfos SQ?
A: 60 minutes
Q: How long did it take to replace the pump with a Grundfos SQ?
A: 90 minutes
Q: What happens if the static water level is too low?
A: The pump overheats
Q: What happens if the static water level is too low?
A: The water level is brought down below the inlet of the pump
Q: What happens if the static water level is too low?
A: The motor shuts down
Q: Which of these isn’t a key dry-run protection benefit for the installer?
A: The installer can avoid costly callbacks
Q: Which of these isn’t a key dry-run protection benefit for the installer?
A: The installer doesn’t have to worry about additional components
Q: Which of these isn’t a key dry-run protection benefit for the installer?
A: The installer doesn’t have to worry about water bursts
Q: In addition to limiting the current draw from the mains during start-up of the pump, how does the soft-start functionality benefit operation?
A: Soft start reduces over-pressure in your piping.
Q: In addition to limiting the current draw from the mains during start-up of the pump, how does the soft-start functionality benefit operation?
A: It reduces the occurrence of water hammer in the pipes and minimises wear during start-up.
Q: In addition to limiting the current draw from the mains during start-up of the pump, how does the soft-start functionality benefit operation?
A: Soft start prevents the motor from getting warm.
Q: Why is correct sizing of the submersible pump important?
A: Because an undersized pump will not be able to deliver the required flow and pressure and an oversized pump reduces energy efficiency, which increases operational costs.
Q: Why is correct sizing of the submersible pump important?
A: Because too small a pump will pump the well dry.
Q: Why is correct sizing of the submersible pump important?
A: Because too big a pump will ruin the taps due to too high pressure.
