Shurflo keeps "running"
Yahoo Message Number: 156184
Hello group, I just got through installing a new water pump (Shurflo Revolution 4008) and everything seems to work just fine except when water isn't being used at the sinks the pump is still "humming". Is there some kind of adjustment that needs to be made? This is my first time changing out the water pump so I'm not familiar with all that is involved.. I must add that this water pump is very quiet in compared with the Shurflo 5.7 and a lot smaller

Thanks in advance

Typically, this means you have air in the system. Fill the water tank and run a faucet on and off a few times to see if the noise stops.

Thanks Steve, I thought I ran the water long enough to get all the air out, but going out and running it longer did the trick. No more humming. This pump is really nice and quiet in compared to the other one
