Hi Guys,
I switched the water heater on and after 20 minutes the plastic hose came off a compression fitting under the steps next to the pump. I took it all apart cleaned and reassembled and it held the water pressure. So a day later I switch the heater on again, the water starts to heat up but not really hot so I left on for another 30 minutes. Then sure enough the fitting separates again?
Do have rework all the plumbing or is there a pressure build up in the heater.?
Cheers Rob
