How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off the pump and relieve system pressure before removing drain plugs.
- 1. Tighten plugs: Gently tighten the drain plugs with an appropriate tool. Do not overtighten to avoid cracking the housing.
- 2. Replace gaskets: Remove the plugs and inspect the rubber or fiber gaskets. Replace with new Espa-compatible gaskets if flattened or damaged.
- 3. Inspect threads: Check the pump housing and plug threads for cracks. Replace the plug or housing if threads are compromised.
