WATER FAULTS

Water                                                                                            FAULT FINDING

Fault            Cause                             Remedy
Water flows                                        Check and re-route if necessary
from hot         Cold water pipe kinked
tap but has      preventing flow                   Disconnect pipes after 1st Y connector and
reduced flow                                       check up to tap
from cold        Blockage in cold pipe line        Refer to installation instructions
                                                   Disconnect and inspect
Reduced flow     Cold tap not connected            Replace cartridge
from both hot
and cold taps    Cold tap failed or blocked        Check battery state of charge,
                                                   refer to electrical supply note
Reduced flow     If a water filter is fitted, the
from either tap  cartridge is exhausted            Disconnect and check that they have at least
                                                   1/4” (6.3mm) bore
If pump motor    Battery condition low             Refer to pump servicing instructions
runs steadily    causing pump to                   Dismantle and clean if necessary
and will not     run slowly
stop                                               Check and re-route if necessary
                 If new taps have been fitted
                 they may be restricting flow      Check all water connections
                                                   Refer to installation instructions
                 Pump needs servicing
                                                   Check and re-route if necessary
                 Partially blocked pump filter     Use taps of equal bore size
                 or in-line filter, if fitted      Check that there is water in the container
                                                   Adjust switch and/or re-charge battery
                 Pump outlet pipe kinked           Check all connections in pipework
                 restricting flow

                 Water leak

                 Y’ connector(s) fitted
                 incorrectly

                 Pipe kinking restricting flow

                 Bore size difference in taps

                 Battery voltage may be
                 too low (below 10.5 volts)

                                                                                                 237
