Boshart HAR5000 1/2" No-Lead Foot Valve

The Boshart HAR5000 is a 1/2" No-Lead (NL) foot valve designed for installation at the bottom of a suction line to hold prime on a pump system. As a rough-in component for well and pump suction piping, this foot valve is built to the 1/2" trade size and manufactured to No-Lead specification for use in potable water applications. Plumbers and pump installers rely on a foot valve of this type to keep the suction line filled with water between pump cycles, preventing the pump from losing prime and having to re-prime on every start.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: 1/2" connection sized for standard suction line piping used on residential and light-commercial pump installations.
  • No-Lead Construction: Manufactured to No-Lead (NL) specification, making this foot valve suitable for potable water suction line applications.
  • Check Valve Function: Internal check mechanism holds water in the suction line above the valve, maintaining pump prime between cycles and reducing wear on the pump from repeated dry starts.
  • Bottom-of-Line Installation: Installed at the foot (bottom end) of the suction pipe, positioned below the working water level to keep the line submerged and primed.
  • Compact Rough-In Component: Sized to integrate into standard 1/2" suction line assemblies without requiring additional adapters for this trade size.

  • Residential Well Pump Suction Lines

Boshart HAR5000-1/2 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does a foot valve like the Boshart HAR5000 actually do on a well pump suction line?
It sits at the bottom end of the suction pipe, below the working water level, and its internal check mechanism holds water in the line above it. That keeps the pump primed between cycles so it isn't dry-starting and re-priming on every call. The HAR5000 is the 1/2 inch trade size version.
2) Is the HAR5000 foot valve OK for potable water?
Yes. The HAR5000 is built to No-Lead (NL) specification, which is what makes it acceptable for potable water suction lines on residential and light-commercial well systems.
3) Do I still need a check valve at the pump if I install a foot valve?
The foot valve itself is a check valve, just positioned at the foot of the pipe rather than at the pump. Its job is holding the column of water in the suction line so the pump keeps prime between cycles. Whether you add a second check at the pump is a system design call, but the HAR5000 provides the check function at the bottom of the line.
4) What exact model number do I order for the 1/2 inch Boshart foot valve?
Order Boshart HAR5000-1/2. That is the only configuration in the HAR5000 1/2 inch foot valve, so there is no finish, handing, or connection option to specify.
5) Is this the right part for a jet pump installation in a shallow well?
That's the typical use. The HAR5000 is specified for residential well pump suction lines, light-commercial pump priming systems, new construction well installations, and repair or replacement work. The valve has to be submerged below the working water level to do its job, so set the depth of the suction pipe accordingly.
