    Booster pump to loft cold water tank

    Hi, If changing the ball valve doesn’t work, then check your incoming supply’s flow rate. If its less than 12LPM and not a lead mains, you could consider the HomeBoost which, if your mains flow rate is between 3 and 12 lpm, the pump will bring this upto 12LPM. If you want to give us a call on...

    Salamander RHP 45 service kit? Will the CT fit?

    Hello, the hoses are available on our spares shop, although when you mention that its leaking around the aluminium housing, this can be down to a shaft seal leak (shaft seals are no longer available as a spare), or if its on the plastic pump end an o-ring can be purchased from our spares shop...

    Shower pump problem salamander ct60bu

    Morning, Just one quick suggestion - it might be worth turning the pump around, it will be a bit messy until you turn it back again but if you say the problem is on the hot side, have the hot swapped to cold and vice versa - if the problem remains on the hot side, we are looking at the...

    Salamander CT60BU negative head shower pump - intermittently coming on after use

    Good morning, In the first instance, following use of the pump, we would recommend that you leave everything as it is (ie. pump on electrically etc) and isolate the two outlet hoses on the pump. Leave these switched off for as long as the pump usually takes to come on and off a few times. If...

    Whole house pump and existing pumps

    Hello, There are a couple of ways you could look at this if you want to stay on a gravity fed system. You could install a whole house pump and have shower A totally separate from the system, if its pumped we would not suggest pumping to or from another pump as this can damage them. The second...

    Mainsboost for unvented system

    The other possible solution would be to fit cold water storage cisterns, from there you could use a couple of decent single impeller negative head pumps to pump from the cold water tank. One pump could supply the cylinder and the other could supply all non-potable outlets, something like the...

    Salamander Homeboost, Hot water coming out of cold tap

    Good morning, Just to back up some of what has already been said. It is unlikely to be a problem with the pump, to confirm this, as the pump is running on when it shouldn't be, isolate the cold water feed into the boiler after the pump (assuming its been fitted with isolating valve before the...
