Hi
Occasionally when we turn any tap on the water doesn't come out properly. Instead it splutters and spurts and then the water pump kicks in, but sounds like it is pumping air. On top of this the pump sometimes stays on, whining away but seemingly pumping nothing. On the odd occasion we've left the boat for the evening only to come back to the sound of the water pump furiously working away.
This doesn't occur all the time, but a whole day can go by with this happening. The only solution is to turn the tap back on until water comes out normally, which is a serious waste of water. Is this normal? Could it be a leak somewhere?
Any pointers appreciated!
