Central heating pumps are responsible for circulating hot water through your heating system, ensuring that your home stays warm and comfortable. However, like all mechanical devices, central heating pumps can sometimes fail or become inefficient, leading to reduced heating performance. In this blog, we will discuss some common issues with central heating pumps and how to fix them. Noisy Pump...
A common question we get asked is how to increase shower pressure, and why there is poor pressure despite best endeavours to change shower heads and not running more than one shower at once etc. There are few things worse than spending a large amount of money on a brand new state of the art shower room, to find that...
With nearly half of the world’s energy consumption attributed to motors and a larger percentage of these fitted to pumps, the introduction of variable speed drives has made a huge impact on the efficiency and reliability of pumping systems globally. Ever wondered why most cold water booster sets and many circulator pumps all use this technology? This blog will give...
The selection and sizing of vessels is very important depending on the application type and system characteristics. Many a pump has failed due to too many starts because of incorrectly specified pressure vessels, and undersized expansion vessels can cause a range of failures. This blog will give you a quick guide on how to size both expansion vessels for heating/cooling...
Have you ever wondered why expansion vessels come in all sorts of different colours, shapes and sizes, and why they’re even needed? This blog will give you a brief guide on expansion vessels, pressure vessels and explain the differences between heating and potable water vessels. The Scientific Bit As water heats up in a sealed pressurised heating system the molecules...
