I believe a Surrey flange is designed for the top of the tank whereas an Essex is a 'new' dedicated tap into the cylinder. Here's my Techflange feeding a loft mounted pump. You can see the anti gravity loop too. Hope this helps.

Yes a Techflange is a type of Essex flange, a google will give you info.

[/url] Yes, that's it.

You have the same set up as me. Use a dedicated feed from the side of the cylinder to feed the hot water to the pump. A techflange is a good idea as the pipe bends upwards into the cylinder to maximize the use of the hot water within. As far as pumps are concerned, I think you get what you pay...

Is it a new pump? The reason I ask is I have recently had a Salamander pump fitted and the flexi hoses are not 15mm, they are 22mm.

I had the same problem despite a dedicated hot water supply. //www.diynot.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=90407&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight= Hope this helps.

I was wrong. They sent me a neat little non-return valve that fitted onto the thread of the pump hot outlet. Not a big job as the connectors have isolators. Problem solved.

Hi the kitchen sink tap is a modern type lever hot/cold mixer, so it's far easier to shut off too quickly than a traditional type tap. I notice that this problem happens as a result of using this tap far more readily. The other taps in the house are 'turn the knob'. I think the pump has flow...

Hi, thanks for your comments. The pump does have a loft mounted option, (Salamander) and I have consulted them over the correct installation several times. The pump has a dedicated Essex flange feed from the HWC. Just to clarify, the showers and the pump work fine, only when a domestic...

We have just had a new loft mounted shower pump to feed our 2 Mira Showers. All is well they work fine. What we have found however is that when we use then turn off some of the hot water taps in the house quickly, the pump starts to pulse. We have to then run the shower for a couple of seconds...
