Hi rssteve no not a laughing matter the chap is a fully qualified plumber.......and you're right it was pumping back into the cold water tank I think...not sure why the sensor is not working on the pump when he moved it to the feed to the taps though,,,,all I know is its cost me a small...

thanks guys you know thats really sound advice, however said muppet is a very close relative who will be very offended if I go else where.....you know what families can be like..... :roll: but thanks for your advice....it still leaves me with the problem of either getting another Grundfos or...

Hi Norcon I want to increase the flow of hot water to two upstairs bathrooms one about 30 feet away from the hot water tank and on the same level, I don't mind if the pump improves the hot water flow throught the house....I did e-mail Salamander and ask for advice but have heard nothing back...

thanks Muggles & Norcon its been a long miserable weekend, the plumber put the pump between the feed tank tank & hot water tank yesterday, couln't get the pump to switch to automatic and left it on manualy, oh this is after he orginally put it on up side down, so when I got home last night...

Hi Guys just a quick question for your expert eyes please when fitting a hot water booster pump does it go on the run between the cold water header tank and the immersion tank or the run from the immersion tank to the taps. Just to avoid the debate there is no way the cold water tank can...

well guys what can I say who would have thought my little question would cause so many vibrant responses, what a passionate lot you are, Bambergaspipes as you have tolorated my lack of knowledge, and faulty terminology I will forgive you for your lack of charm many thanks for the...

there you go with the "stupid" again, if i knew what the problem was i wouldn't have been asking for advice Be nice :)

Hi Sambotc I never said about reducing pressure that was bambergaspipes idea, all I wanted to do was stop the water splashing every where because the pressure is so low it splutters all over the place, what this gadget will do is enable the stream to flow more directly into the basin , until...

Thanks Sam spot on, this is just the thng I have been looking for.

Ok enough, I am not stupid, just seeking support & ideas guys :oops: I have poor hot water flow in so much that the water from the hot tap to the basin spluters all over the place, as its your suggestion Bambergaspipe to reduce the flow at the isolation valves...... I tried it...

thanks guys yes I do mean basin, and yes I have also fitted isolation valves, however in reducing the pressure to the hot tap, the flow is really poor, if I turn it up the water splutters all over the sink sorry basin. I have stolen the ones out of the laundry sink taps as an interim and I...

well its like this the sink and toilet are en suite size and cost a pretty penny (over £300) so would probably be cheaper to buy taps rather than a new sink, however I do like the style of the taps, but I can't believe there is no where that stocks aerators or similar device that you can just...

Hi Muggles no they don't have anything in them and I can't feel any thread inside the spouts either, do you know if you can buy a push in plastic type from any where please.

Hi ya have recently bought new sink from B&Q which came with Edwardian style taps, the problem, is I am looking for some anti splash "bungs" to go in side the end of the spouts, as the water is splashing all over the place. have scoured the net, but am not sure of the correct name for them...

Hi guys thanks for the input, but don't do technical, I ned the pump to send hot water from the tank to a bathromm thats about 30' away on a level run, the present pressure is just pants so do you still think this pump will do the job, or can you suggest another one please :?: PS have used...
