This could be interesting. Any thoughts/predictions:
I have a pump operated shower – in the past year the pump has been replaced 3 times as it stopped working – but the plumber is at a loss to the problem and said it must be something to do with the electrics? This makes sense, because if I go to switch the shower on and it’s not working (as again of late) all I am doing is unplugging the pump plug from the electric socket, wait a good while and switch it back on and then the shower works? When I put the plug back and switch it back on it sometimes makes like a ‘thumping’ sound? Both the pump and the socket are in the airing cupboard next to the bathroom.
What do we reckon
-Connections?
-awful pump quality?
-Air lock?!
-too close to cylinder and seals failing?
I'll be surprised if this is actually an electrical problem.
