Hi
I have a fairly standard Gravity-fed vented system in a fairly standar two-storey house. I have just re-done my kitchen and replaced the tap with a funky new monobloc (ceramic valve) mixer.
As a result, the hW pressure through this tap is really low and wit the mains pressure feed for the Cold Water, the tap temparature i either freezing cold and very powerful or boiling hot and v slow there's no "mixing" of hot and cold. I've tried closing the servic valve for the CW a little and this works, but it's not great a mixing. I was thinking of adding a HW pump in the loft from the cylinder, bu my mixer shower in the upstairs bathroom already has a pump attached t boost the tank-fed Hot and Cold feeds. I have another shower that is power shower that also relies on tank-fed low pressure hot and col feeds. Access in my new kitchen it very limited, has anyone any suggestions a to how I can boost the pressure for the kitchen tap?? Overall pressure of the hot taps in the bathrooms(s) is not great - bu not as important as the kitchen for washing-up etc etc.
Thanks in advance for help and advice
Ale
