PRO Pitless Adapter for Submersible Well Pump (Fits Well Casing Sizes 4"-8") Discharge Pipe 1", Casing Hole 1-3/4", Model 148106

Prevent Water Lines From Freezing This pitless adapter from Water Systems provides a secure connection between the drop pipe inside the well's submersible water pipe and the water line running to a service location. Using a pitless adapter below the frost line reduces the risk of water freezing and makes it easier to maintain a well without digging to access. Each adapter features two pieces that slide for a tight seal. One of the main differences between a pitless adapter and traditional wellheads is that the drop pipe extends from the side of the casing instead of the top. The pitless adapter can make this because the pipes connect at a right angle. The right angle also allows the water flow to extend above the ground. Extending the wellhead above the ground also enables easy access to perform maintenance. This submersible pump pitless adapter allows easy maintenance and component removal. You can pull the assembly out by screwing a tool into the pitless adapter's threaded male component. Enjoy the ease of use when performing additional maintenance tasks, such as video inspection and well chlorination. of Using a Pitless Adapter Makes it Easier to Work on Interior Well Components This pitless adapter from Water Systems features a malefemale design to make it easier to work on interior well components. Screw a Tbar to the threaded top of the adapter to remove the drop pipe, wire and submersible pump without compromising existing installation. After completing the repair, slide the male piece into the female component. Extends the Wellhead Above Ground Having an aboveground wellhead offers an easy access point for well maintenance. Having an aboveground wellhead also serves as an excellent reference point to avoid damage to current well components during repairs. Prevent Well Pit Deterioration Many wells of the past had a well pit and wellhead or covering to connect the drop pipe and supply fitting. The well pit helped to prevent water supplies from freezing in regions with cooler climates and provided easy access for technicians to perform maintenance. However, when covered with an access cover, well pits can deteriorate and become a trap for animals and small children. If the lid is too tight, it can also trap underground gases, creating further danger. A pitless adapter from Water Systems eliminates the need for a well pit improving the overall quality of your water supply line.
