Good morning, as always with these type of appliance its best to read the manufacturers instructions and follow exactly how they say to install it. This will make sure you have a long life and that its covered under warranty. With regards to the hot water connection i would recommend...

good morning, sorry for the delay ive been in Belgium for the week. To be very honest with you - that way is for the regenerative only pumps as they have a stronger impeller and is more suited to make it easier for a diyer to tee in to existing supplies. If its fitted like this it will...

We would really need a pump model or a picture if you can. if you can get on one before i leave work toady ill try and help but im away next week

Good morning, Which model of pump and is it a mixer or electric shower? cheers

Most radiators will come that are not a roll top will come with four holes and you can choose which ones you use for the blank, the bleed point and where you connect the pipework to. Usually centerrad, stelrad etc are like this. cheers

You can get various types of heat mat, some being better than others, the thicker type from half decent plumbers merchants are good, avoiding the thin ones from larger diy stores- You can even get a heat proof spray now that stops surrounding areas being burnt. You could try to solder any...

Try to avoid the pump valves with the little penny turn screws on them - the ones with the proper valves are the best.

Most shower pumps tend to need to be a certain distance below the cold water storage tank, Salamander pumps need to be at least 600mm from the bottom of the cold tank. You also need to be careful about the distance between the bottom of the cold tank and the highest part of the system which is...

Good afternoon, My advice is both honest and impartial (otherwise ide get booted off!) The Homeboost is 100% legal and well within water regs. The maximum that the pump will deliver is 12l/min as this is the legal maximum that the pump may draw from the mains. If you have between 3l/min...

To me it would sound like you are having a problem with the natural flow through the pump. Most pumps require a natural flow as a baseline to keep the flow switches suspended and it sounds like you are sometimes dropping below this and the floats are dropping out and turning the pump off...

Just a quick note to add, the force range of pumps are suitable for separate hot and cold appliances so long as you go for the TU range as they have bypass tubes on them. The PT range are shower specific. cheers

is it a mechanical timer? if it is you can usually hear a faint ticking. Turn the switch off and see if ticking stops. if its digital then switch off and see if the display goes?

backup immersion heater?

And this is where i step in...... Good morning, first of all isolate the outlets on the pump where the hose connects onto the outlet pipework. This will tell you if you have a a system or pump issue, if the pump stops hunting (coming on on its own) then you know its a weep or a drip on the...

I cant be seen to be advertising but if you contact a certain manufacturer (clues in my username :roll: ) and ask to speak with the tech team "they" can go through your options. I think "they" have a Homeboost video for an idea of how the pump works and will be on the website if you google...

Good afternoon, Our Homeboost will work if you have a low mains flow rate of between 3l/min and 12l/min by trying its best to bring your mains flow rate up to 12l/min, which it the legal maximum you can draw from the mains. If you are wanting more than 12/l min you would need to install a...

Silicone Eater! but test on a part of the floor that's not seen first in case it hurts the floor

Possibly, however the way i suggest is fail proof and the safest way of doing things, its not worth taking any risks with an expensive piece of equiptment. It is always best to consult manufactures guidelines

Possibly, however you have a negative head pump, so you wont get a natural flow through the entire system under gravity. Personally i would open the outlets into a bucket under gravity at the pump, re-connect back up and open the highest point in the installation, allow the gravity flow to...

To be honest i would really follow the manufactures guidlines on how to commission the pump. usually this would mean having the pump full of water before turning it on. Easiest way would be to put the outlet hoses in a bucket first and turn the inlets on with the electric off to flood the...
