How does an external jet pump on a shallow well work?
External pump on a shallow well system. When the power cuts off, and a spigot is opened, air can get into the well’s pump lines, restricting water flow. To get the pump working properly, the air has to be bled out by adding water to the lines while leaving an escape for the air when the pump is restarted.
