AAARGGHHH!!!
Ok so yesterday I went and did the good son deed by going round my Dads house. He has had trouble with the hot water pressure in his taps even though its fed from a single point outlet pump. It seems the pump doesn't kick in straight away when you open the taps but can take anything up to 30 secs to a Couple of mins. Seems like an airlock in the system or a block in the filter. So I took the hose off the pump and cleaned the filter of a build up of lime scale that had built up, thinking that had down the trick. Put it all back together and nothing's changed.
Anyway, could be an airlock but didn't have any more time as he had to go out.
Dad called me this morning saying his Aqualisa shower isn't now working. Just flashing a blue light but no water coming out.
The pump for the shower is a separate pump which I didn't touch. It's got two inlets, cold and hot and a mixed outlet. When I left last night it was running as we ran it to make sure I had opened the isolation valve correctly. Seemed fine than.
Looking round I'm getting a mixed bag of answers. I've heard low pressure, problems with boilers, thermostat resets etc. anyone here know anything to these problems?
it may also help,to know that the setup,is in the airing cupboard as follows.
Hot water coming off cylinder branches off to two separate pumps one for the shower- one for the hot water bathroom taps.
Thanks for the help!
