I would very much like to mountnt my power shower pump on the wall vertically. From what I can gather from the physics of these things is that they need to keep wet and so I have located it such that the hot supply and cold supply will always be bearing down on the pump and the out flow is below the pump.
Is there any reason, other than manufacturers insitance that the pump be horizontal. If I do located it as suggested I will have to loop the out flow through 270 degrees to get it into the pump and by doing so create a massive bend which is bound to act as an air lock.
Surly these things are stable enough that they can be installed in this way. I have also been told not to screw it down, are these thngs so unbalanced they shake apart if fixed to anything solid. I have of cource used the rubber feed between wall and pump so there is some vibration dampening.
