Steve,

Since Joe mentioned they'd be taking the suction from a pond, and the pump house was at the edge of the pond I would think that A.7.2.2.1 would be better. It's described as "in a well" which is somewhat similar to a pond.

The sketch you're referencing is appears to be in a concrete lined wet-pit which is a different matter entirely.

If it were me, I'd use the one for a well.

Just my thoughts.

Subject: Vertical Turbine Fire Pump

Does anyone have a good detail of an arrangement for the intake for a
vertical turbine taking suction from a pond? I am trying to help a
general
come up with a design of how the pump will take suction from a pond. We
will
have a pump house on the edge of the pond. Please fax or e-mail anything
you
would be willing to share.

Best regards,

Joe Burtell, SET, CFPS
