Likely causes
- Outlet open
- Tap open
- Leak in the system
- An outlet open, tap or leak etc.
- Debris or foreign bodies entering the pipeline
- Reduced water feed supply through blocked strainer filters
Where to start
- Check that outlets are closed and no leaks are present
- If installation has isolation valves on outlet of pump, close and see if pump stops - if unit stops there is likely an issue with the system leaking
- Pump powered without water feed supply shuts down after 60 seconds
