Jet Pumps
Shallow well jet pump sales & services in Victoria, BC.
How Jet Pumps work
Jet pumps create pressure through the use of an impeller or centrifugal pump. The impeller moves water — known as drive water — through a narrow orifice, or a jet, mounted in the housing in front of the impeller.
Constriction of the jet causes the speed of moving water to increase. As the water leaves, a vacuum draws additional water from the well. The extra pumped water combines with the drive water, discharging into the home at high pressure.
The process of drawing water with a shallow well jet pump is that it also uses water. As a result, the pump needs to be filled with water, or primed, before it can work. One-way check valves are installed to keep the water from flowing back down the well.

INCREASE JET PUMP LONGEVITY WITH REGULAR SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
An above-ground, one-line or two-line jet pump can operate for many years before requiring replacement. They can last as few as four years to as many as 15 to 20 years. That said, issues may arise if not properly maintained.
Shallow well systems and water pumps may require updates in water technology and maintenance to keep the water running. You can add to their longevity and stop problems from arising with preventive maintenance.

Suction lift is the distance from the surface of the water to the inlet of the pump. It is essentially how far the water must travel through the pump from the surface to its destination. If you have any questions at all regarding your jet pump, feel free to give us a call and our team of trained experts will be happy to help you, no matter how small the request! Contact us today!
Your first step is going to be to disconnect the electricity from the pump and remove the priming plug located at the wet end of the pump. Fill it with water and then replace the priming plug and reconnect your electricity. It is as simple as that! Make sure your pump is building pressure and you will know you have successfully primed your pump. If you encounter any issues at all, Integra Water is here to help. Contact us now!
The major difference between a deep well and a shallow well when it comes to sizing is simple. A shallow well has a maximum depth of 25 feet to the surface, whereas a deep well can have a depth of up to 120 feet. Deep wells use a deep well ejector kit that is matched to the pumps capabilities.

Jet pumps are pumps that are typically used to draw water from below to provide potable water and proper water pressure for households, sprinklers, or irrigation systems. The jet pump uses a suction pipe to draw the water and increase its speed so you get the desired pressure in your shower or sink. If you suspect your jet pump is broken or damaged, contact Integra Water and we will send one of our experts to you to assess the situation and determine what the next steps should be. We are happy to help!
See What Our Water Solutions Clients Are Saying
I am so happy to have been referred to Jason at Integra by one of my family members who was a previous client. Jason effectively explained recommended treatment plan for our well water situation. Jason was so efficient yet personable enough to make installation very comfortable. Pricing was very fair and our water from the tap is clear and safe. I highly recommend the RO system that we also added, hooked up to our refrigerator. Thank you, Jason!
