The Secret to Perfectly Priming Your Pressure Pump

Ever had your pump lose its prime and wonder what went wrong? Don’t stress—we’ve got you covered. Here’s the ultimate lowdown on priming pressure pumps, whether you’re dealing with a flooded suction or suction lifting setup.

For Flooded Suction Pumps:

✅ Connect all the pipework.

✅ Unscrew the priming plug (it’s on top of the pump casing).

✅ Air will rush out—keep going until water squirts out.

✅ Screw the plug back in, and you’re good to go!

For Suction Lifting Pumps:

✅ Connect your pipework and locate the priming port.

✅ Pour water into the priming port—since water won’t flow automatically.

✅ Want to make life even easier? Install a T-piece on the inlet with a ball valve. Open the valve, pour water in, then close it once the pump is primed.

Simple, right?

By following these steps, you’ll keep your pump running smoothly and avoid the dreaded "loss of prime" issue!
