• Flush inlet pipework and carefully fill
pump with water by discharging water
from the outlet flexible coupler into a
container.
• Fit pump inlet filters.
It is CRITICAL to discharge water through
the pump into a container using natural
flow before connecting the pump to
outlet pipework in order to ensure
the air has been discharged from inlet
pipework and pump chambers. This
will not happen if the outlet pipework
is connected to the pump. The best

• Open shower mixer valve/system outlets
to maximum hot and cold to check the
natural flow (unpumped) flow of at least
1 litre per minute – positive head systems.
• Open hot water outlets fully for
5 to 6 seconds and then turn outlets off.
Then open cold water outlets fully for
5 to 6 seconds and turn outlets off. If
flow is poor and inconsistent repeat
above steps until flow is steady.
• Repeat 2-3 times.
