In a past life, I was quite involved in the water supply and drainage, but this puzzles me....
Our village is fed from a water tower, built on a hill. Every few months our normally good supply pressure drops for several hours, then comes back to normal - I'm just curious as to why this might happen?
Our electric shower still has enough pressure to work, but at a reduced flow rate. My best guess is that every so often, they deliberately allow the stored water in the tower to run down to ensure it is fully flushed so as to avoid Legionaires or similar. Anyone able to confirm that they do this sort of thing on a regular basis?
