Pros and cons
Pros
- 291 ft head
- 2-wire
- Built-in check valve
Cons
- 230 V only
- Pro install
- Highest price of the Red Lion pair
Limitations to weigh
- Well pumps usually need a licensed installer, the right wire size and a pressure tank sized to the pump.
- Check whether your circuit is 115 V or 230 V before ordering; many well pumps are wired for 230 V.
- Maximum head is where flow drops to zero; at your lift the pump moves less than its maximum flow. Size it with the sizing calculator.
