    Hi,
    We have a walk-in shower and has an Archimedes 4 pump to take away the water.

    We frequently have to call out someone to clean the pump, as occasionally a small piece of grit gets caught in the system and the pump attempts to draw away but can't!!

    Is there anything I can do to save costs and clean it myself?

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Rather naff, a nearly £400 filterless system, if it can't handle a small piece of grit.

    Looking at the spares page they list a AKW 15mm compression fitting Y strain filter.

    Thanks for the advice. I totally agree that the system if naff by not having a filter of some sort as part of the unit.
