Hi Guys,
Have fitted a Salamander CT50 pump which is not working as it needs to, its fitted to the MI instructions. The shower its running is a fixed head type so the head is pretty high, and the gravity flow through the head is not enough, according to Salamanders tech team.
Basically the pump is not kicking in, sometimes by playing around with the shower flow turning from hot to cold, I can get the pump to fire, but not all the time. With the shower on, if I unscrew the cold outlet hose slightly it will fire the pump everytime and it will run correctly even when tightened up.
Spoke to the tech team the other day and they mentioned something about a air flow switch that will force water into the pump, making it work correctly.
Anyone had this problem before? have you used one of these switches? How do they install etc?
Sorry for the long post, but wanted to give you all the info I had!.
Many thanks
