Question:
The booster pump in my house was so noisy that I switched it off for more than a year. Recently I replaced an old faucet, and something went wrong with the water pressure, so I tried turning the booster pump back on to increase the pressure, but found that it no longer operates. Could this be due to it being unused for such a long time?
Ans:
1.When a booster pump is restarted after being left unused for a long time, it may stop working because the shaft is jammed. Before you switch it on, insert a screwdriver into its cooling fan and try to rotate the shaft. Then remove the screwdriver and switch the power on to see if the pump runs normally.
2.If the problem persists, contact the producer’s customer service for assistance.
3.You may also want to replace the booster pump with a low-noise model. We’d recommend Walrus Pump’s WQ_B, HQ_B or TQ_B series.
