So is my best approach to investigate the pump for the pressure relese valve or check the filter side? Neither a job I relish as there seems to be a lot of pipework and electrical connection inside the tank.


Also, does anyone make or supply the special tool for undoing the rings holding the pump and filter in the tank? Might it be a tool standard to the industry I can get from a good moyor factors ot tool supplier?
