3 Bar Shower pump leaking Shaft seals.

[dalejg]

I have the following pump

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/320907005...AX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2648#ht_600wt_1185

It is the same as the one on ebay.

It has a slight leak from the shaft seal on both sides.

Can i buy a Stuart Turner Seal kit as below

It would be nice to know what make the pump is but there is no branded name on it..

Any help greatly appreciated.

You can buy a ST seals kit but if its not an ST pump its less likely that will fit.

I usually say that leaking seals means a new pump!

It is either replace 2 seals from a kit for £38 or spend £300 on a new pump.

Would rather give the seals a go first!!

If your pump is the same one as in the ebay advert then it is a New Team booster pump.

Don't try and fix it, buy a new pump. Buy a Stuart Turner Pump.

Just to let you know, i decided to strip the pump down and replace the seals, as at the end of the day it is only a seal that is worn out which would happen on any pump eventually.

The shaft was not damaged and there was no marks on the shaft.

Managed to source the seals for the pump for less than a £5 for both sides.

Pump has been running perfect for well over a month now with no leaks.

So saved myself £295.
