i bang my pump and it bursts into life ...

[timmy toad]

having recently had to call a plumber in, he had to remove the Air seperator which was all bunged up with sludge, the plumber said we didnt need it anyway !!!. At the same time he fitted a 2nd pump i had been given, the original one was very noisy.

Now i notice that sometimes this "new" pump doesnt work all the time, i have to give it a bang before it will burst into life !.

So i am going to have to get a new one !, it looks to be easy enough to change by myself !, but where should i go to get one, i guess Plumb Centre, Screw Fix and/or Jewsons ire the most convenient for me, would a cheap one be sufficient, or is it like most things, you only get what you pay for ?.

I see online that Screwfix do one for as little as £40 including VAT and Post and Packing, is this too good to be true ?.

Cheap is as cheap does.

You get what you pay for.

You are experiencing it already - don't double whammy yourself. Get a Grundfos or even Grundfos Alpha - depending on your boiler.

Good call!

Can you call your plumber back on a warranty basis?

Seriously, did you come on here just to ask where to buy a pump?

Why should he come back, he only fitted a pump supplied by the OP & by the sound of it it may have been a second hand one.

Then it`s definitely a second handjob...
