Hi, I installed a salamander pump well over a year ago to help boost our hot water. It has worked well although noisier than I would have liked. Recently it has begun starting up all on its own!! It goes on for about 10 seconds and then turns itself off. This is in the bedroom so wakes us during the night. I have tried turning all the mixer taps to cold, checked the old taps are not leaking but still it goes on. I have inspected all the pipes that are easily accessible and can't find any leaks. I have spoken to Salamander and they could only suggest what I have already done. Can anyone help? Is there an easy way to check for leaks without having to rip up all the floor boards? If it is a leak it must be a very small one because I have checked all the ceilings where the hot pipes are. Just remembered I did have to replace the inlet pipe section of the pump because it leaked fairly recently. I have had another look at this, but it seems fine and anyway surely it would have to be the outlet side that would cause the pump to come on. Hope someone can shed some light on this for me.
