can any one give me some advice . living in rural wales a job i went to see tday the customer is on a well ( no mains water).he has asked me what he can do to improve the pressure from the hot tap ? any ideas would be much appreciated.
Been speaking to a friend of mine who also has a well and he,s got an unvented cylinder connected to his four the last seven years with no problems ,he has had to change the expansion vessel a few times , all manufacterers i have spoke to say that its got to come of the water main.why ? none of the manufacterers:banghead: no why.
 
Well water can be quite aggressive and quickly rots out pipes etc, need a good filtration system, then booster pumps.
 
One of my customers has a well in their back garden, all I know is that there is small Lowara pump in there taking water to the house but don`t know the set up once it reaches the house as that`s not my game. Just go once a year to clear the strainer and check it over.
 
what is the current set up for the hot water,
hot water cylinder cold tank in loft??

can the cold tank be raised higher, fit a pump??
 
no simon the tank cant go any higher,its at the top of the roof space ,current set up is open vented cylinder . any ideas of a good pump ( grundfoss whole house booster).
