Hi.
I'm having issues with my bath taps. I moved into a new house which only has a bath, I noticed that the pressure from both hot and cold taps on the bath is really good so I purchased mixer taps with a shower on them.
I've never changed a tap before so decided how hard could it be..... After a few leaks a busted knee, elbow and ripped tshirt.. it was harder than I thought. I got it done though but the pressure is stupidly low. Before with the 2 single taps I could fill the bath in minutes. Now with the new mixer it takes about 20+ minutes and the shower has no pressure either.

Have I done something wrong or is the problem with the taps? I just don't understand how something with such high pressure can change to literally nothing.

Thanks
 
How about the 2 bar version of this pump connected to the hot and cold under the bath. Would that work?
