Package pump is a part that is in the package and as we said, its task is to move the water in the heating system of the house so that the water reaches all the heating pipes and radiators.
You should know that package pump is also called circulator pump; Because it does the work of water circulation in the heating circuit. Many people think that the pump is in the path of water entering the package, but this belief is completely wrong. The pump is located in the path of hot water coming out of the package and pumps hot water to the pipes of the heating system so that the heating process is done correctly and without disruption. If the pump inside the package has a problem, the heating system of the package also works properly. will not have and therefore cannot heat the environment well.
Where is the pump location in the package?
Many people who want to check this part to make sure of its health, do not know exactly where the pump is located and what it looks like.
You should know that the pump is located at the bottom of the package. When you remove the package frame, you will see this piece under the package frame and below it and you can access the pump.
Problems caused by pump breakdown in the package
1- Improper water circulation in the heating system:
If the pump is healthy and working properly, it does the work of water circulation in the package heating system well. By checking the pipes of the heating radiator, you can feel the circulation of hot water.
If the pump has a problem, the water circulation in the radiators will no longer be done properly and the package pump will be very hot. If the pump is very hot and does not work well, it is better to repair the pump so that the pump does not burn. 2- Low temperature of radiators:
If the water hardness part in the package is not used, there is a possibility that a large amount of salts and sediment will enter the pump. In this case, the pump will be clogged and its performance will be impaired. One of the symptoms of improper pump operation is the low temperature of the radiators. If you touch the radiators and notice that they are cold, you should suspect the health of the pump. In this situation, there is a possibility that the pump is clogged and cannot properly pump hot water to the radiators. One of the reasons for the low temperature of the radiators is the problem in the piping of the package heaters. To solve this problem, it is better to get the help of experts to replace the heating pipes, so that any problems in radiator piping can be solved faster.
3- High noise of the pump:
One of the important tasks during the service of the package is airing the package, which helps to discharge excess air and adjust the air pressure in the package. If the ventilation of the package is not done well and there is a lot of air in the pipes and enters the pump, this will damage the pump and interfere with the work of this part. In this case, the pump is usually noisy. It works and when the device is on, you hear a lot of noise from the pump; Therefore, if you experience such an issue, it is better to ventilate your package to solve the problem completely.
4- Pump not working:
One of the signs A pump failure is when the pump does not work at all. In this case, even though the package is on and the device is working, the pump does not work. In this case, either the pump of the device is burnt or this part is out of place. To solve this problem, it is better to ask experts to open the pump and install it again after troubleshooting this part.
How do we find out that the pump inside the package is in trouble?
1- The pump stays on all the time:
One of the signs of pump failure, which we mentioned in the previous part, is that this part stays on all the time. The water pump should work only when needed and should be turned off normally. He observed and checked it. One of the signs of pump failure is that the pump does not turn on after the package flame is lit. In this case, the burner does its job and the water heating process is done; But the pump does not deliver hot water to the radiators. In this case, you should check the pump and leave the repair of this part to experts. 3- Water leakage from the pump: Another sign of failure. The problem with the pump, which we mentioned above, is the water leakage from it. The pump is a part that works with electricity, and water leakage from this part is very dangerous; Because it leads to the connection of the electricity inside the package. For this reason, if you see water leaking from the system, we recommend that you quickly diagnose and repair the package in order to prevent other systems of the package from being damaged and connecting the parts. Avoid it.
4- Making a lot of noise from the pump:
The pump normally does not make a lot of noise and does its work slowly. But sometimes it is possible that the pump produces an abnormal sound, which indicates the presence of deposits or breaks in the pump. Therefore, if you recently hear a lot of noise from the pump of the device and are bothered by this issue, Be sure to troubleshoot the pump to find the main problem of this part. 5- Package welding: Another symptom of package pump failure is this. that your package boils. This is because the pump does not do its job well and the water does not circulate properly. The lack of water circulation and the blocking of its path causes the temperature of the package to rise sharply and the package boils.
