Correction: This article has been updated as of 6/11/25 with fresh information from the CCPC that Archergas Model 15-60/130, the Lowara Models Ecocirc and Ecocirc+ and the current version of the BritTherm P2 25/5 circulating pumps included in the original list published by the CCPC are not affected by this safety notice, as they do not possess the electrical coupling referred to in the notice, and pose no risk to tradespeople.
The CCPC has issued a further safety warning for 14 different circulating pump brands over a potential risk of electrocution they may pose.
This warning for tradespeople follows a recent CCPC product safety information notice regarding a number of Tucson circulating pumps.
Details of that notice and the Tucson product replacement programme are available at: Product Safety Information Notice on Tucson 5m, 6m and 8m circulating pumps.
The CCPC has received reports of other circulating pumps that may have the same or similar electrical coupling as the one on the affected Tucson pumps above, and therefore, may present the same risk of electrocution.
In line with the precautionary principle and to avoid potential harm, the CCPC is carrying out this early intervention by making all traders and tradespeople aware of this potential risk.
The warning relates to the following circulating pumps:
- AquaPro, Model: RS 25/6 EAA
- Katsu Tools, Model: Star 25/
- Embrass Peerless, Model: Eclipse CFA-25-50
- THS Thermostyle, Model: THS RS25/6 EAQ
- Trident, Model: STAR 25/6EA
- Boiler M8, Model: Boiler M8 RS25/6 EAZ
- Suntask, Model: Star A PUM-STAR15/6A
- IBO, Models: IBO NOVA 25-40 180 and the Beta 2
- Avansa, Model: Avansa 32/6/180E
- Intertrade, Model: INTERTRADE 6 metre head circulation pump (Type R S25/6EAQ)
The CCPC has contacted the companies that produce these pumps to bring the reports to their attention. Any company that becomes aware of a potential safety risk with their product is legally obligated to take immediate action.
The CCPC is advising tradespeople to exercise caution when working on heating systems that use these circulating pumps.
Consumers are advised to do nothing at this stage, while investigations are ongoing to establish if the products meet product safety requirements.
Correction: This article has been updated to correct the warning for circulating pumps, not heat pumps, as previously stated.
