Wash Stations Pressurize the System The
Lake Water Irrigation System is built up on two major components: The Lake Water Pump and The Pressure Control Switch at The
Expansion Tank. These two (2)
components produce and control a high volume of pressurized supply of Lake
Water to all other system components. Other System Components Drains: Important Note: All Drains must be closed to pressurize
the system! There are seven (7) Lake Water Irrigation System Drains
used for winterizing (Draining) the system.
See “The Lake Water Winterization Procedure”. Important Note: the first two Drains on this list are internal drains and
must be closed if the pump is energized to pressurize the system or internal
flooding in the home will occur. 1.

the Lake Water Pump System Components
Index for visual ques on individual component locations. Operation: To
pressurize the Lake Water Pump System, locate the Lake Water
Pump Switch to the right of Electric Subpanel One (1) in the garage and set
the switch to the on position. The system will come up to sixty (60) pounds
of pressure within a minute putting available Lake Water at each of the
Irrigators, Sprinklers, or hose connectors, (Hydrants). Access water usage at
each component by opening its valve to release the water. The
pump is capable of supplying water at sufficient pressure and volume to
actuate four (4) sprinklers simultaneously. For

Water Pump System Components Index Lake
Water Irrigation System Individual Components Lake
Water Pump The Lake Water Pump is a one-half Horsepower (1/2 HP),
two hundred twenty-volt (220 V), submersible well pump. The Lake Water Pump is energized by the
#10 and #12 two hundred twenty-volt (220 V) Circuit Breaker on Subpanel One
in the Garage with its Control Switch mounted just right of The Pannel. The 220 V power cable passes from Subpanel One in the
garage to the space above the closets on the South Foundation Wall and
connects at a junction box on the East wall, back corner of the Work /
Storage Bay. When the system is pressurized by
activating The Lake Water Pump Switch to the right of Sub-Panel One, the pump
supplies a high volume of lake water at thirty to sixty pounds of pressure
(30 – 60 PSI) via “The Lake Water Main Supply Line” located at the East side
of the “Dock Access Point” shown below. The Lake Water Main Supply Line connects to
all Hose Hydrants, Sprinklers, Irrigators and “Low Point Drains” via manual
valves to control the flow of water to intended components. Important Note: ·
Large Drains in the “Pit” at the entrance to The Work / Storage Bay ·
The Pressure Tank Drain at the back of The Work / Storage Bay are
internal drains and must be closed if the pump is energized to pressurize the
system or internal flooding in the home will occur. The two hundred twenty-volt (220 V) “Double”
Circuit Breaker #10 and #12 on Subpanel One in the Garage energize The Lake
Water Irrigation System Pump Control Switch mounted just right of The Pannel.
With all Drains closed this switch
pressurizes the system. Subpanel One in the Garage with The Lake Water Pump

The Lake Water Pump Assembly componants shown below include The Pump and, The
Pump Cover with its screened intakes to filter out debris and its support
“eyelet” to aid in positioning the pump in the water, and The Pump Support
to keep The Assembly off of the lake bottom. See The Views that shows the
individual componants and The Lake Water Pump Assembly componants together as
a unit.
The Pump slides into the
“Cover” with filter screen to keep out debris and the Pump and Cover sit in
the Support Cady as seen in this view.
Dock
Access Point with The Connection to the Lake Water Main Supply Line.
The
Pump Assembly is positioned at The Main Lake Water Supply Line at the base of the
dock access point shown in the next views and
is ready to slide into the water of the lake.
The Pump
Assembly is positioned in the water and ready to be energized aftrer pluged
into the 220 volit receptical on the utility post at the dock access pont. Note: do not pressurize
the system before closing all Drains.
Lake Water Expansion Tank and Pressure Switch The Lake Water Pump Pressure Switch controls energy to the pump that
pressurizes The Expansion Tank to stabilize the system pressure to all
components while the pump is cycled “on and off” by The Pump Pressure Switch
to maintain water pressure between thirty and sixty pounds of pressure (30 –
60 PSI).

The Lake Water Pressure Tank with
Drain The Lake Water Pump Expansion Tank
is located in the back of The Work / Storage Bay, and it has a drain valve
that must be closed when pressurizing the system or significant flooding will
occur. Lake Water Pump Power Cable Junction
