    It will cost between 700-800 to supply and fit a negative head monsoon. Whats wrong with it? It may be repairable.

    Hi,
    Basically stopped, but she tells me that when fitted 3 years ago, it was running continuosly (no flow) afterwards and when she rang "plumber" he said this was normal!
    So she used to use isolator switch to dampen noise. Mad I know!
    Now dead.
    Anyhow, she has been quoted €750 + fitting by a plumber who says it requires replacing. He is also pressurising her (excuse pun) with line of "only one left in stock and weeks to wait after".
    I know this is exhorbitant for the pump and would then possibly be an open cheque for fitting.
    Hence, looking for recommendation for a fair tradesperson for a fair job.
    Thanks

    Do you know the existing pump manufacturer? Should be lasting a lot more than 3 years
