Ta Jabsco 4 are good and will still give you enough pressure for showering,I use them and no problems with pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ta Bear in mind that you don't want to have a pump producing more pressure than the PRV on the calorifier is set to - in fact it needs to be a good margin less. Otherwise the pump will run all the time and just pump water out of the PRV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psycloud Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 (edited) Water goes straight to a Morco for the hot water and cold to taps direct Our Jabsco is working great (we also use Morco for hot water). You don't need to overspec the pump because the Morco can only heat at a certain rate anyway so restricts the flow accordingly.

smileypete Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 I think a Morco may works best with a 10-12 litre per minute pump, maybe those with a Morco could say what they have and whether it works OK. cheers, Pete ~smpt~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
