Pressure is bleeding back through the pump or system to the tank or well or where ever the water is coming from. Should be some sort of one way valve to keep water from going back to the source, mounted somewhere so that once pressure is pumped up, it will hold that pressure in the part of the system that has the pressure switch that controls the pump.That or you have a leak where you can't see it. (Actually you do, it is just internal and not leaking outside the pipes!)
What type of pressure switch or pump controller on pump? Could be capacitor check. with power on try spinning fan at rear if starts probably cap. Have it checked. Could be controller faulty.
Does the motor turn it self off after a couple of minutes of no pumping?= ran out of water. If there is water up to the pump and still no water, check filter/s ( if there is any). Undo V band and check pump internals, impeller may be broken from shaft? When putting back together tap V band with block off wood or back of screw driver evenly as you do up the clamp to stop it distorting
Paul. Is it only the shower that the pump cuts out? i dont think we have these pumps in AU. Would bet that its a flow issue. Either remove the water saving device in the shower, if there is one. Pr turn another tap on just a dribble when you start the shower?We have these issues with "smart"? controllers that think there is a leak
Does your system equipped with pressure tank (pneumatic tank)? If it has, maybe it's already filled with water due to some pinhole leaks. Drain the tank and see what will happen.
Question edited for correct spelling of maker 'Noen' to 'Moen'.
'Fix' as in it is leaking? Or tighten it down because it is wobbly, or something completely different?
Well, we can have a one on one seminar by the internet. I've been a pumpman for 20 years. I can share with you my experience (household pumps, suibmersible pumps, turbine pumps, gear pumps, piston pumps, dewatering pumps, mud pumps, trash pumps, mining pumps, solids handling pump, etc....) Just take your pick. Just send in your e-mail for assistance. God bless.
It is leaking due to a defective mechanical seal. It needs to be replaced. To replace it, is to take the pumpcase off by taking off the bolts that hold it. Then, take the impeller off to take the mechanical seal behind it. Put the replacement in, and reassemble the pump. Just get in touch with us by e-mail to get more assistance.
Move the lever or turn the knob. Check the stop tap under the sink. Make sure the faucet control knob or lever is tight, There is normally a removable cover that hides the screw..
Question edited for clarity, full 'make model (what it is)'.
This a Menards special. To remove handles, look for a small hole hidden from the front. They take a small Allen Key.
