It needs a reinforced suction hose that will not collapse under vacuum and a delivery hose on the other side. This kit supplies both, correctly sized in 80mm to match the ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy are the two hoses different?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe suction hose works under vacuum, so it must be reinforced or the pump will pull it flat and lose prime. The delivery hose works under pressure, which holds it open, so layflat is fine there and it is lighter and packs down far smaller.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I use 50mm hose I already own?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can fit it, but it will cost you most of the pump. At 1,000 litres a minute, 50mm hose loses over \u003cstrong\u003e18m\u003c\/strong\u003e of head across a 20m run against under \u003cstrong\u003e3m\u003c\/strong\u003e for 80mm. Reducing a 3 inch pump down to 2 inch hose turns it into a slower 2 inch pump. If you need more discharge reach, add 80mm layflat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes self priming mean I do not have to prime it?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Self priming means the pump can clear air out of the suction line once its casing is wet. You still have to fill the casing with water through the priming plug before the first start, and running it dry destroys the mechanical seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow high can the pump sit above the water?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUp to \u003cstrong\u003e7.5m\u003c\/strong\u003e of suction lift, though shorter is always better. Priming takes longer and gets less certain the higher the pump sits, so set the pump down the bank rather than at the top of it wherever you can.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eShould I buy the WB30 or the WB20?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe WB30 when volume is your constraint, since it moves nearly twice the water.

The WB20 is 5kg lighter and has 4m more head, and for most site, farm and flood work it is enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs a strainer included?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, with the pump, along with hose couplings, washers and clips. Fit it every time: it is what keeps anything larger than 6mm away from the impeller.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I run it in a cellar or a barn with the doors shut?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Petrol engines produce carbon monoxide, which is lethal in an enclosed space. Site the pump outdoors and run the suction hose in, or use an electric submersible pump instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat clears the last few inches?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNothing with a strainer on it will, because the strainer has to stay submerged.
