Title: Flow rate on the L5
Post by: SunShineCleaning on December 17, 2012, 04:08:06 pm: I don't use mine as on demand, rather I circulate it to warm the tank of water.

I have just been showing a mate the difference between the L5 and the Kampa Geyser and it seems that the L5 would only ignite when the pump was on speed 7 whereas the Kampa Geyser worked down to speed 3?

For those who use the L5 on demand what will yours work down to and do you modify it?

did you change the low pressure screw under the heater??? turning that means you can run it on a lower pressure than it is factory set at.

I didn't know there was one??? I will have to have a look. I know there is a brass drain thingy but the pressure screw I'm not sure about.

a little cross head screw, if you turn it one way, cant remember what way off the top of my head, it will alter the pressure and should work on a lower digital speed
