Whale WS7205 Fresh Water Surge Damper-White

Product Information

I am pleased that fitting a surge damper has made a difference to the noise, but from what I know of the way they work, by its self it will not change the noise the pump makes but it will affect how often and for how long the pump works. Historically, some submersible water pumps were notoriously reluctant to prime and, when initially submerged, needed to be shaken to expel air and allow the pump’s impeller to 'get a grip’ on the water. OK if an Aquaroll-type external water container was being used, but not if the pump was in a motorhome’s fresh-water tank. Reich advertise “a patented ventilation system which is integrated into many of our pumps and provides immediate output after immersing into the tank”, and your Reisch pump should have that feature ad not suffer from priming problems. Yes, you can continue to return items as normal as long as you follow the government guidelines about leaving your house. Does anyone have any other suggestions of likely cause or steps I could follow to diagnose the problem more accurately.

Thanks Derek. Have saved a copy of that exploded view for future reference. Suspect this might not be the last issue I have with the pressure switch.

Overnight I charged the battery and this afternoon the same problem occurred. Now as it's a pressure system which should cut out once the required pressure is achieved I could only assume there was a leak somewhere.

If there’s no water leakage preventing the water system from pressurising properly, the prime suspect for the ‘surging’ must be the Whale Pressure Switch. So if the problem does not spontaneously cure itself, beginning by swapping the Pressure Switch would make sense. And, if there are no leaks and fitting a replacement Pressure Switch and pump is ineffective, that would just leave the Whale surge damper.

I can only assume that something else happened when the surge damper was fitted, perhaps a pipe was rerouted that prevented it from vibrating against a wooden panel, or something like that.Sail Handling Headsail Reefing & Furling Mainsail Control Headsail & Genoa Control Sheet Winches Lewmar Sheet Winches Lewmar Electric Winches & Conversions Antal Winches Winch Handles & Accessories However, as Adria has chosen to fit the pesky Whale Pressure Switch that has its own NRV, there should be no imperative need for another NRV at or near the pump.
