Hi,
I had a gravity feed shower that wasn't a very strong flow, I fitted a second hand shower pump that didnt seem to work properly, it started for about 10 seconds then stopped, give it a few minutes turn on the shower mixer again and it would work for another 10 seconds then stop, also I found it had a leak so I decided to buy a new one and fit that.
I have bought a Bristan Varispeed 50. fitted that in place of the old one but I can not get the pump to start up.
It has power going to the pump
HW is taken in from the HW Cylinder via a 15mm Surrey flange on top of the Cylinder.
Cold water is going in directly from the cold water storage tank in the loft.
The HW supply to the pump coming from the Surrey flange is about One meter from the bottom of the cold water storage tank.
The highest point of pipe work to the shower is below the cold water storage tank by about 400mm.
I tried to bleed the New pump like the instructions say, by turning shower mixer on for a minute without power to pump.
Now Pump still does not work and also I have no water at all coming out of my shower hose even without pump working.
I can not see any reason why it wont work. Any ideas???
