Inlet pipes, come from the loft, where they go horizontally and then down to the pump in the airing cupboard. Equal pressure in theory from cistern in loft feeding both. (dedicated feed). There seems planty of pressure out of the pipes when i disconnect them from the shower mixer...

Hmm. Ok. No flow wier (!) though.

Thanks a lot for your time and input; 1) Sorry - I wouldn't know what to look for! 2) Inlet filters - I haven't checked as I assumed that the fact that water flows once the pump does kick in means that they're clear. 3) I could check that with the manufacturer I guess. (I have mailed them...

Am I asking a dumb question? I guess so.... 15mm pipe? Could it be that I need 22mm?

I'm only an amateur, mate - but I'd say get a central heating engineer out pronto.

It's a Hudson Reed Tec mixer valve, no diverter. It's got inlets for h&c and an outlet. I didn't check for blockages, as it flows fine once the pump is kicking the water through it. It just isn't allowing enough flow when I open the valve to trip the pump's flow switch. How does the...

I've got a shower mixer all plumbed in, dedicated feeds to H&C inlets via a flow switched pump. There's a tiny ooze of water emerging from the outlet on top of the mixer whether the pump fuse is in or not. When I disconnect the h&c feeds I've got a good flow from each, even with the pump...

OK, so I've got a pump on the floor behind where the shower cubicle will be tiled in. I can feed a 2.5mm t&e to it from the loft. I can connect this 2.5mm t&e to form a 13A fused spur. I would then have to connect the 2.5mmt&e to the flex on the pump. This connection would be behind what...

Could anyone advise what is required when installing a shower pump behind a studded wall in a shower cubicle. The final installation would be tiled in and accessable via an unscrewable panel. I'm thinking of swapping a rarely used plug socket spur from the garage to feed the pump (feeding...

I put in a new shower. It worked fine, but the flow was a bit low, so I put a pump in. It worked first time. However.... ...when I returned to the shower half an hour later it wouldn't work. Not a trickle. So I loosened off the connections to the shower mixer, and a bit of water spat out...

Scrub this query - I found out from th e manufacturer that the pump doesn't have non-return valves. See new topic for next installment.

...twin impeller, 1.5 bar max variable speed pump, £129 from Grahams.

It's an Altech "Shower Booster Pump 50".

I've got a shower pump, plumbed it in, wired it up and all is well and working fine. However, before I happily tile up the shower cubicle I have a nagging worry I need to sort out. The shower mixer MI's say that if the pump has non-return valves I should remove the non-return valves from the...

So if you plumb in a pump , below the level of the cold water tank in the loft so there's a head of water, and fit air bleed valves at the highest point in the pipework - then the jobs a good 'un?

Would this work?
