Hi guys,
My house is a new build and cannot believe that the plumbing was done by plumbers at all, it is a disaster. Have slowly been correcting bits over the last couple of years. The vent pipe was crooked over the tank about 10cm above the water level line. I seem to remember 450mm being the minimum but wondered if there is a maximum. As in one of my previous posts, my system pumps over when the pump is on speed 3 and wondered if raising the vent pipe may cure this but wondered how high is too high?
 
New build ??? How old is it.
I can't remember the last time I fitted a header tank.
