What is the difference between a shallow well and a deep well jet pump?
Jet pumps can also be connected to a well in two ways. The most common is called a “shallow well” setup, usually used on a dug well – having only a single water line between the pump and the well. The second is called a “deep well” setup which has two water lines between the pump and the well. The smaller line drives water down to a “jet” in the well, and the larger line sucks water out of the well, boosted by the “jet”.
