Salamander S Type Flange 22mm

The Salamander S flange is a great innovation designed to stop air getting into your pump. The S flange encourages aeration to follow a natural path to the vent and prevents aerated supply water being drawn into the pump.

Why would I need a S flange?:

Plumbing is not an exact science and aeration of the supply water to showers and other outlets is a common problem

When a pump is fitted to boost the supplies from the cold water storage tank and from the cylinder to showers, baths and basins the risk of aeration is increased many times

Aeration - aerated supply water to pumps and to showers and other outlets means an increased risk of:
- Unnecessary, perhaps sudden temperature fluctuation at the shower or other outlets
- A noisy pump
- Accelerated degradation of the pump's mechanical shaft seals eventually to leak
- Premature pump breakdown

A correctly fitted approved cylinder flange will mitigate if not prevent these risks.
