The water pump next to hot water tank has started making loud whirring

Posted by Fiona Heath, on
The water pump next to hot water tank has started making loud whirring and hissing noises continuously, regardless of whether we are running water. Any ideas?

F Heath, This sounds like the Pump has gone, probably the Impellers, so would suggest a new pump fitted unless Pump under Warranty. This can be caused by your Hot Water being too Hot. Bill Pipe Dreams Plumbing Services, Bournemouth, Dorset
