pump shutting down unexpectedly

I have had a 1.5 bar "Duraspeed Hi-performance" shower pump serial no. 013048 in constant domestic use for 8 years. There has never been a problem with it. Now it has started to shut down after approx 5 minutes running. It will restart after a period of time.

1). Does this pump have a time limit on its length of use?

2). Would a replacement control unit ( 8 ) NEWT-SP-088-1111 resolve this problem ?

3). I have had to purchase a different manufacturers brand as I was told that the model I had was no longer in production, is this the case ?

These pumps are good value for money pumps with a normal lifespan of around 5>6 years. (2 years to 12 years is not unheard of)

These pumps are difficult to work on and unless you can be sureyou have correctly ID the faulty part they can cost more to repair than toreplace.

The pumps are still available but have been rebadged as Bristan Hydropower
