What A ‘Love Tap’ Is
A ‘love tap’ is a gentle tap with a hammer.
How A Love Tap Helps
A love tap can free a mechanical device that has become stuck, for instance a central heating pump.
A love tap can provide enough movement to free up a motor or pump; a love tap can dislodge debris that is stopping the motor or pump from moving.
When To Use A Love Tap
Use a love tap when a motor or pump when all else fails; a love tap can break as well as fix.
Only use a love tap on a mechanical device, for instance a motor or pump.
Check everything else is OK before using a love tap, for instance:
· The electrical supply is present.
· All RCDs are in the ‘on’ position.
· No wires are disconnected.
· No wires are frayed or damaged.
· No fuses have blown.
