Case Studies

Steve Charlton is a Plumbing and Shower installation specialist who carries out pressure flow tests on every shower installation. Previously, this required using a flow cup and pressure gauge. By switching to AquaScan, he now only needs one piece of equipment, significantly streamlining the process.

Ryan Mills is a plumbing and heating professional based in Scotland. He frequently carries out annual servicing on unvented hot water cylinders. This includes essential testing for temperature control and measuring flow rates, which he now uses AquaScan for.

An owner of a farm was experiencing significant challenges due to a low cold water flow rate of less than 6 L/min. They also required bigger water storage capacity to boost water supply to a sink and an outside tap for jet washing.

A homeowner with a 350L unvented hot water cylinder had a 300L accumulator and pump installed to boost water flow in their home.

However, the accumulator was undersized, causing the pump to frequently run dry. This issue led them to replace the pump twice, highlighting the need for a more suitable solution.

A householder, DIY influencer Becky Russell, decided to renovate her upstairs bathroom. Unfortunately, the water flow in the bathroom didn’t even reach 4 L/min, therefore she spoke to the Salamander Pumps team for advice on improving water performance.

This new-build property has multiple outlets including a double shower, unfortunately the mains water supply was only 12L/min at 2 Bar, which was not able to provide a sufficient performance of all the outlets so they needed to improve the mains water pressure and flow.
