Thames Water for one (and maybe others), in an attempt to meet their statutory requirements for reducing leaks, are reducing pressures down towards their statutory obligation to provide a minimum of 1Bar pressure (it's a lot cheaper than mending the pipes). In many areas this may mean a significant reduction. There have been complaints from London councils and the Fire Service already about reductions.
Does a possible drop in pressure to 1Bar make direct, pressurized hot water systems less attractive?
