A pressure pump can underperform even when it is new if sizing, pipework, electrical protection or placement are not right.
Installation mistakes to avoid
- Choosing a pump without checking head, flow rate and building height.
- Mounting the pump on an unstable base that increases vibration and noise.
- Skipping proper earthing or suitable circuit protection.
- Using pipe sizes that restrict the intended flow.
- Running the pump dry or without a suitable controller where one is needed.
