Hi please help, I have a DAB P0100 water pump which pumps hot water ( from solar water tank on roof) and cold water from the tank, which I think is causing the problem. It pumps the water into my house and just lately everytime I use a tap I get soaked! There seems to be so much air in the pipes. I know you guys probably know what this is but I haven't a clue where to start - any advice would be gladly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Are you sure the Dab Pump isn't just a circulation Pump?

The pump is connected to the cold water storage tank to push the water round when there is no mains available - does this help?

I'm not sure what you mean by "mains". If this pump is under pressure, I'm not sure how it could be drawing air into the system. It wouldn't make sense.
Tell me more about your system.

Hi by the mains I mean the main water supply from the local water company.
Anyway I have done some research ( I live in the Caribbean so things are a little different from the UK and the US) and it appears all my neighbours are experiencing the same problem. So I have been onto the water company and they are looking into the matter, they think it is a strange problem.
I will let you know what happens but thanks guys for all your help.
