Water pump running constantly

    Hi,

    Hope this is the right place to ask for advice.

    The pump in my rented apt is running constantly has happened before and was repaired. I have turned off the pump so it doesn't burn out

    My question is do I need to turn the pump on to run the washing machine? Also can I turn the emersion heater on with the pump off and then only turn on the pump when I want to shower?

    My landlady is away so will probably be Tuesday before I can get anyone out.

    Thanks for any help!

    Immersion is ok and safe with pump off.

    95% of WM are plumbed to the water mains.
    Some in apartments are off the pump and won't work properly without it.
    So I'd recomend not useing it till your sure, just been cautious.

    Wm should be off mains connection so would be ok to use, in anyevent it wouldn't work with out water.

    There shouldn't be any issue heating water and only turning pump on when required.
