Hi all,
Hope you can all help - Ive just spent 3 days fitting a nice corner jacuzzi bath enclosure only to find that I have very poor hot water pressure - its no more than a trickle if Im honest. I had the water pressure checked before I bought unit, but only checked the cold - it was fine.
The bath is next to the airing cupboard where the cylinder and two tanks are - and I have a few questions before I prepare for getting a pump (Electricals will be done by a Part P sparky before anyone comments)
1/ Is my system negative head?? The top shower head is probably level with half way up the water tanks.
2/ My cold water pressure is fine, can I just install a pump via a 'S' Valve to just the hot water feed and leave the cold as it is.
3/ The enclosure I have has a mixer tap which runs 2 overhead showers, back massager and bath - only one will ever be on at a time. Will a 1.5 bar pump make a big difference in pressure.
Any advice will be much appreciated before I go and spend more money.
