How do I replace a central heating pump?

Plumbing FAQ
First, try to ensure that you get one with the correct capacity (flow-rate), and speed that is correct for your system. Most modern systems use a 3 speed pump, and most low water capacity boilers will need it running on the highest speed. It is best to get the same make and model if possible, or at least one of the same PHYSICAL size, then you won't have to mess with pipework to install the new one. There tends to be 2 ratings for these, up to 60,000 BTU systems, and 60,000 to 120,000 BTU.

All of the ceiling and many of the walls had to be completely replaced, and along with it quite a bit of the wiring and plumbing.
