Rigid pipework which is clipped/ fully supported will ensure the unit is fixed in place. Providing there is a slight gap behind the pump and the fixing wall there should be no vibration transfer noise during operation.

Hi .. I just installed two of these .. one to hot tap , one to cold. Both work very well.. the cold tap pump is all most silent … the hot tap pump (which has the least pressure before the pump fitting) is noticeably louder .. it’s not loud … but much louder than cold inlet pump … the cold is a very low hum sound .. the hot … is almost a whine type Noise ? Any ideas… if ran the system a lot to clear any air so don’t think k it’s that . Thank you *is it just that pump Is having to work harder ? I used two pumps to o make sure mixer tap would be balanced
We’ve just had a new bathroom fitted and the plumber admitted his ballsup. He plumbed the mains cold water @3bar to the mixer valve and gravity fed hot water supply. Excellent if you want a really cold shower! The pressure is terrible for a warm shower. Would fitting a full house salamander to the hot only (if possible) boost the hot to a better level so the mixer knows wtf is going on? 🤭
You can't get something for NOTHING.. I'm not a plumber but you can only either increased the volume or the a pressure or both . Physics.. It all depends on "why " you have little pressure in the first place in situations likes this.. Its not irrelevant. Its crucial unless you get lucky like this guy... A pump like this will always work if it's drawing water from.a deposit. Drip drip fill deposit at night, pump water unto you're house during the day.. That's what I've got. 1m³ Deposit (Don't drink it) Stagnant water can be a problem .. Also don't draw your water from the bottom of the deposit, that's where everything that isn't water ends up more ot less.. I'm off off grid, .. Ideally though just have your deposit Higher than your nuclear búnker and let gravity do the work. Gravity is free..

I installed one of these in a customer flat. It worked great to start with but not seeing tap is on and have to fun bath tap first to get it to see the drop in pressure. I've had a few salamander pumps fail to address this. The negative head pump failed after 13 months and far too expensive to replace, so opted for this booster. But again don't last long and are way over priced fir what they are constructed off
I’ve a Grundfos pump pressuring a shower, it’s a twin pump coming off a cylinder. Tap pressure has always been terrible, would i need another pump for the taps?
@SalamanderPumps3 ай бұрын
You can supply both the shower and taps from one twin pump. For example, our Right Pumps range are a whole house pumps, a twin pump will supply both the hot and cold and the performance ranges from 1.5- 3.0 Bar.

We have 2 shower pumps from a single cylinder. One sits under the cylinder and supplies 2 ensuites. Another one sits under the family bath and supplies the bath and shower above. The plumber didn't install a flange as he didn't want to risk breaking the old cylinder ( that is what he claimed to!). The salamander plastic double impeller pump below the bath packed up in 6 months. Replaced with brass salamander pump now. The brass Stuart monsoon sitting at the bottom of the cylinder supplying 2 ensuites runs fine. We do worry running 3 showers ( living with 2 teenagers) simultaneously will empty the cylinder out😢.

Hi, are you still answering questions here? I have a CT80B and only one hose in has a valve to turn the water off, the others dont. I have a stop cock on the hot water pipe luckily, and have cleaned the filter on that. The cold I donmt have astop cock on the pipe. Should the pump be supplied with valved hose connectors?
so I have the issue with my hot tap mostly, even downstairs in the kitchen. I think its partly to do with the mixer tap fitted but moreso the use of 8mm braided tails feeding hot and cold to it. Cold is fine, hot is poor. Would this pump still manage to improve my flow, I'm guessing it must!
@SalamanderPumps5 ай бұрын
8mm is restrictive so the natural flow wont be strong enough to lift the float in a positive head pump, however a neg pump it will allow the hotside to be pumped matching the cold.

The first delay is likely air as air in system (1-2secs) which when purged it comes out straight away - that’s just because the pump works on sensing a drop in pressure then kicks in- again its very slight before activating.
