"any plumbers out there who can give me your feedback on which is,best please? I need some help customer reviews online slate both! confused!  "
Whats the pump being used for a shower a couple of bathrooms, will the shower be above the water tank?
But to be honest Stuart and Turner are the best by far the have a better liters per min ratio and the customer service is second to none. Hope this helps. |

Has the pump you had installed worked for long or on and off? You can get an air switch to make it work if they say its negative pressure but you only need 6 inches of flow for positive situations. |

Positive head if the storage tanks are above pump negative if storage is below pump . also pump needs a designated cold feed off the cold water storage tanks and a designated hot off your hot water cylinder usually via a " Surrey" flange |

As long as the storage tanks are above the shower head a negative head is needed. By regs yes on the surrey flange it will mean that if another hot water source is turned on In the house hold it won't affect the shower temp |

If your going for a Stuart Turner pump. Go for the monsoon range. As they have brass internals. Stuart Turner are cheap range with plastic internals. How old was your last salamander pump. Have u got a model number of the data plate.  |

had 2 salamander pumps go in 3 months, once at installation and the other after 2 months use. it was a tc85--684. engineer said I should've had an esp 100 neg as tank not 600mm from shower head but it is above shower head and there's positive water flow |

"To be fair a lot of plumbers get stuck on positive / negative pumps. "
Now I have an image of a plumber in A & E with a shower pump stuck to them
Sorry doctor I went to service the pump and it just jumped at me and stuck to my old bhoy. |

http://www.stuart-turner.co.uk/contact-us/ give them a call they will let you know exactly what you need and are very helpful. But Monsoon is way better than the showermate plastic range they offer.
