To be honest thats pretty Sod poor.

Did you not look at pressure drops through filters before hand?

Firstly get rid of that 22mm cheapo ball valve and fit a full bore lever valve.

Then it looks like it goes into steel.

You could feed into a break tank and Then boost from that.

Is it mains? Spring? Or bore hole?

Is that 15mm pipe above the ball valve?

Also it would appear your ecv falls to on on the gas meter

Hi Simon before pressure was great. After installation by plumber i check again for few second it was same , i paid him and he left. But little while later i try to use water constantly and that time i release water pressure goes down after 10 second later.

I dont get your last question about mains, spring or bole?

without break tank look like using this system is useless right? What about booster or pump can work to increase pressure? but i have standard combi boiler not any tank before or after?

Yes it is 15mm it was like this before i bought this house. Before owner or someone else install like this i dont know why

Looks like 15mm copper than goes into 1/2" iron.
As Simon, remove the restricting 22mm service valve.
Then if the pressure is still poor remove all 3 filters from the housings and screw the casings back on.
If the pressure improves try 1 then 2 filters .

What grade are the filters 15, 10, 5 microns?

What was the reason for the filters being fitted?

 

[Ismail]

I will remove the all filters tomorrow but i want to use it for further if i found solutions to not loose pressure. Also i guess even get rid of this filters this 15mm pipe cause to loose pressure as well is it?

It’s certainly not sized well

First things first. Is the stop-cock fully open? Close it fully then open it fully, which will typically be eight or so half-turns, then close half a turn.
