Both succinct and a highly accurate appraisal!

well i've heard some stories before but that is taking the micheal.

Got no problem with the bloke saying there's flux in it if it hadn't been flushed out sufficiently, but have considerable issues with him claiming that this would have caused a leak of any sort whatsoever.

It seem to be leaking from under the pump

so where does the flexis come into it ? that where changed on a visit by the plumber from the shop.

(was working ok for about 10 weeks then started leaking from the pump,we replaced the flexly pipes on the pump all was ok for 3 weeks then the pump started to leak again)

what pump is it ?

 

[footh]

it was leaking from them first then we replaced them ourself, that was about 3 -4 weeks ago, then started to leak again last week so i call the company whomakes them and they sent a plumber in to look at it and that is what he said on friday

 

[seco services]

so its not leaking from the flexis now but under the pump ?
and he said thats due to the plumber who installed it having flux on his hands.

what pump is it ?
