 At
one end of the pumphouse box, locate the center bay between reinforcement
ribs (arrow "A" in photo) on the inside of the pumphouse.
Measure
from the top outside horizontal plane of the box 8" down
on the outside of the box in the center (bay) of the end of the
box. This is the center location for a 3 1/4" diameter hole.
Mark this location.
Using
a 3 1/4" diameter hole saw, use the pilot drill to drill
a hole at this location, drilling from the outside, inward. This
port will be the suction line to your pump.
Using
the gasket or lock nut to a C218 bulkhead and the pilot hole
you just drilled, make sure that the 3 1/4" hole you are
about to drill is centered. If it is not - redrill the pilot
hole. The C218 bulkhead must end up centered between the two
reinforcing ribs on the inside of the pumphouse wall. Drill 3 1/4"
diameter hole.
Install
C218 bulkhead in this hole with locknut on the outside of the
box.
Install
a 2" PVC male adapter into 2" bulkhead on the inside
of the pumphouse. Be sure to use teflon paste on both the threads
of the bulkhead and the 2" male adapter. |
