Have just finished replacing a shower enclosure, Tray, Valve and stuart turner monsoon 3 bar twin pump.
Got a call from client telling me water pis**ng water all over the place.
When i had got there the hot water pipe out of the pump to the shower valve had a 1 cm split in it (15mm hep2o barrier) .

The pump their originally was a 2.2 bar that had 22mm supplies i removed existing pump and put in a larger one.
The 22mm outlet off the pump was reduced down to 15mm and approx 1m of 15mm to the shower valve on both hots and colds.
the pump was last on the line so i had to put in single check valves to prevent the pump hunting when ever a hot tap was turned on.
can anyone shred some light on what caused the pipe to burst???
Trevi Shower Valve and riser
Stuart Turner 3 bar monsoon pump twin positive
22mm supplied into the pump with 2 lever valves and 2 single check valves
Out of the pump immedietly reduced down to 15mm and aprox 1m of 15mm before going into the shower valve contained around 4 elbows.
Oh the shower valve had not been used it had burst with the water being static.
