Hi guys!

I'm new here, so pls be gentle! I have installed a showerforce 3 bar pump. I have not fitted any non return valves etc to it. When it's not in use it switches on and off!! Very annoying as this has been hardly used.
I would really appreciate some help as I have had to switch it off and pressure is not so good.

Thank you in advance!
 
Thank you for your reply, yes it was fitted to the letter. Really bemused as to why it's happening.
 
Hello and thank you for your reply, yes it is only feeding the shower. I have called Bristan and they told me to remove the switch float on the outlet. Clean it up and replace it. I've done that and so far no probs. I did realise that is was very clean and hardly any lime scale. I only see this as a 'service' so to speak. As problems started about a month after installation, so I really don't think it could be a prob of lime scale as they suggested.
What do you think?
 
They're the experts so I'm inclined to go with what they say at first.

Ideal Logic 24, Previous problem was that the hot water was only cold or barely warm if the heating was in use. If heating was off and boiler cold then would get hot water most of the time. Changing the flow cartridge about 2 years ago (when I moved in) solved this problem enough to suffer it as...
