I have installed a salamander ESP75 CPV pump to a Gledhill Envirofoam Stainless Steel SE36X18IND Hot Water Water Cylinder.
The cold feed I have taken from the CWS via 22mm pipe.
The hot is from the shower take off point (similar to essex flange) which is fitted as std. to the cylinder.
It is a Neg. head situation with the shower head being a foot higher than the base of the Cold Water Storage.
All the suction side of the pump is 22mm and the pressure is reduced to 15mm shortlay after leaving the pump.
Plumbed up, installed, flushed through, switched pump on and turned on shower for the first time....It ran lovely, no issues with it.
I turned the shower off and the pump did not want to stop, it makes horrid noises. I turned it off at the wall.
I now switched it back on and the thing doesn't work at all.
To me the mechanism/sensor that senses the pressure build up seems to be faulty. Unfortunately the thing is out of warranty.
Does the installation sound ok and does it sound like a buggered pump?
Help please!!
