Salamander Pump leaking :(

[fattony]

Hi guys,

I have a little leak from my pump in the bathroom but from what I can tell its not from any of the pipe work, attached is a picture of the suspect leak but if I describe it as well someone may be able to help:

The copper pipe connects to the pump via some flexiable pipe which screws onto the plastic thread on the pump, this all looks ok but the water seems to be dripping from the 2 holes at the end of the thread, what are these holes and how would I go about fixing this leak?



Thanks

65 views and not a single comment does anyone know what these 2 holes (obviously filled with something to stop water dripping out) are for and why would the pump leak from there?

we don't even know what pump it is only by a blurred pic.

I have a feeling it might be a shower pump

p.s. I suggest you use the DITnot picture process

The pump is a Salamander Pump and I believe its the CT50 range

Where the pipe connects on the left hand side can you see the 2 small holes (I've no idea what these are they may not even be holes, I can't actually get to them to see properly)

I believe the water is dripping out of one of these holes, could this be possible?

The pump is about 3 maybe 4 years old and the full details are below:

Thanks for help in advance
