it's only a cheap pump from ebay so i'm not too bothered if it goes. anyway i managed to connect the irrigation pipe to it using 22mm to 15mm straight coupling pushfit connector.

sounds ominous... why not?

i'm trying to connect this pump https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/water-pumps/0266597/ to this irrigation pipe https://www.waterirrigation.co.uk/catalog/product/view/id/10614/s/hydrosure-15m-x-13mm-supply-hose/category/14130/ The inlet/outlet on the pump is 22mm. that's the external diameter and...

Some random dude on ebay. It wasn't a company.

BTW... Thanks for your help sparky.

Nothing. Looks like it's dead. Is there any way of getting Pyronix to replace it? The warrant sticker on the box shows warranty is to Nov 2021. Or no chance because it was a DIY job.
