Installation Recommendations
1.
To help prevent difficulty in priming, install the
suction pipe without high points (above inlet
of pump - inverted "U"s, commonly referred to
in plumbing as an airlock) that can trap air. For
installations of equipment up to 100 feet (30 m)

Installation & Operation Manual
from the water, refer to Table 1, the pipe sizing
chart. For installations of equipment more than 100
feet (30 m) from the water, the recommended pipe
size must be increased to the next size.
2.
VS FloPro Pumps come equipped with unions on
both the suction and discharge ports. This feature
simplifies installation and service and eliminates
the possibility of leaks at threaded adapters.
3.
The VS FloPro Pump must be connected to at least
two (2) hydraulically-balanced main drains for each
pool pump suction line. Each drain (suction outlet)
assembly must be provided with covers and must be
listed or certified to the latest published edition of
ANSI
/ASME
A112.19.8, or its successor standard,
®
®
ANSI/APSP-16. The suction fittings of the main
drains must be at least three (3) feet (1 m) apart or at
different planes. The suction fittings can be a drain
and skimmer, two (2) drains, two (2) skimmers, or a
skimmer with an equalizer line installed. Check the
local codes for proper installation.
