Constantly losing hot water pressure from Direct Vented Cylinder

Which taps are causing the issue? Seperate bath basin taps should be fine as long as the pipework has been done right. The kitchen tap is the tricky one but its certainly possible to still get a good enough flow rate out of it.

Pressure won’t be the best less than 0.1 bar as the tank isn’t that high ideally you would want it 3m above the cylinder

Yeah, not the best is it, I have a couple of mates in the block & there's was never as bad as mine, must be something specific to me I guess

My plumber (new guy) is going to strip out the pump tomorrow and restore the status quo, will re-assess after that & hope it doesn't stop completely !, thanks for the guidance

How old are your taps ?

The basin & bathtaps will be pretty old to be fair, the bath ones could be as old as the initial installation i.e., 30 years
