Grundfos STP 2 fault 2

Pompa çalışıyor fakat su basmıyor (positive displacement pumps)

Shower pump

What it means

Pump runs but does not deliver water on positive pressure pumps.

Likely causes

  1. İzolasyon vanaları kapalıdır (Isolation valves closed)
  2. Filtreler tıkalı (Filters blocked)
  3. Undersized tank causing insufficient supply
  4. Incorrect outlet height causing hot-water-only delivery
  5. Outlet positioned below mains inlet causing air ingress
  6. Undersized pipework
  7. Pipes routed under floor causing air traps
  8. Other outlets fitted in inlet pipes
  9. Shared (non-dedicated) hot/cold supplies
  10. Blanked-off pipes
  11. Restrictions in flexible hoses
  12. Unsecured pipework
  13. Direct mains connection causing pressure issues or pump damage
  14. Jointing compounds/tape causing blockage or leaks
  15. Shared supply pipe causing air ingress or reduced flow
  16. Missing surrey flange causing air in hot water supply
  17. Leaks due to insufficient hose insertion depth
  18. Debris ingress into pump causing blockage or damage if strainer omitted
  19. Solder joint heat damaging plastic pump components
  20. Air pockets from incorrectly routed pipework
  21. Restricted or kinked flexible hoses
  22. Additional outlet fittings on inlet pipework causing incorrect flow switch operation

Where to start

  1. Check tank capacity is at least 227 litres (50 gallons)
  2. Measure height difference between cold-water outlet and hot-water cylinder supply
  3. Check position of outlets relative to mains inlet in tank
