    Increasing Mains Cold Water Pressure and Flow Rate

    Just to keep updated, SWW came out and have agreed that we are getting poor flow rate and have agreed to replace the communication pipe free of charge! The have said I will get the same and 3 doors down so I’m happy with that!

    Increasing Mains Cold Water Pressure and Flow Rate

    I’ve just been round to a house 3 doors away who we know and measured their pressure, quite different from ours! Static pressure - 3.2 bar Dynamic pressure - 2.4 bar Flow rate - 21L/min I’ve got SW Water coming out on Wednesday so hopefully they can do something to increase ours! Hopefully...

    Increasing Mains Cold Water Pressure and Flow Rate

    It’s an older house (60’s built). Water will be for shower/bath and general use around the house. I’ve only really considered combi system. I’m assuming you are talking about having a hot water tank somewhere?

    Increasing Mains Cold Water Pressure and Flow Rate

    I’ve seen that system advertised before but couldn’t find much info on it. I’m assuming any suitable water tank would work with that? I measured just under (2.9 ish) bar on the washing machine connector in the kitchen, then when I turn on the kitchen tap it drops down to 0.7/0.8 bar. If I...

    Increasing Mains Cold Water Pressure and Flow Rate

    Budget is one of those things I am not set on. I don’t want to spend £300 and it still be poor, but then also don’t want to spend £800 if I don’t need too. We have the space for a storage tank, so that is definitely an option. It is only the two of us at the moment, so Water needs aren’t...

    Increasing Mains Cold Water Pressure and Flow Rate

    I figured that’s why the Home boost pump didn’t have much effect on my flow rate. I’ve been looking at a system such as this - https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F172668430075 Would a break tank work in the garage being the lowest part of the...

    Increasing Mains Cold Water Pressure and Flow Rate

    I’m going to check a neighbours pressure/flow and see how theirs compares. If theirs is the same then I’m pretty confident it’s just an area thing and I’m not going to benefit much from paying for a larger communication pipe

    Increasing Mains Cold Water Pressure and Flow Rate

    I don’t know about that, I only had the customer side of the meter changed. I’ve got SW Water coming in a couple weeks to check but I’m pretty sure I’ve got above the minimum they are required to provide so they won’t do anything about it. I’m also pretty sure I’m on the end of the water main...

    Increasing Mains Cold Water Pressure and Flow Rate

    I had considered that, but the boiler is being fitted on the ground floor and running the pipe work to and from the tank would be a pain! We have a detached garage approx 2m from the house and an open trench between that I have considered diverting the main water inlet into the garage and...

    Increasing Mains Cold Water Pressure and Flow Rate

    Evening All, We have just (3 weeks ago) got the keys to our first house. Central heating and condensing boiler currently being installed. Plumber has advised that our water pressure is low (just about enough for boiler but not ideal). I’ve bought a pressure guage and have the following...

    So I bought the D-Link and installed it today and I'm not that impressed really... When I first installed it I managed to get 90Mbps over wifi on my iPhone and iPad, after not much time I can't get over 45Mbps. I also find the range is pretty poor and I'm pretty sure it's worse than the TP Link...

    I've been considering replacing my pfsense box with a D-Link DIR-880L (on special for £95 ATM) Has anyone had any experience with one of those? I'm thinking that it should cover the majority of the house and I might need to keep on of my access points for the garage/garden. I have Virgin...

    Recommend new access points for house

    No particular need for faster than 30Mbit, but I want to replace the mismatched kit with 2 or 3 of the same product and thought it would be a good time to invest in 5GHz and possibly AC compatible equipment. Never used any Rukus equipment although I've heard good things about them? They are...

    Hey, I currently use a mix of random Wireless N access points across the house to give strong wireless signal. I'm looking at replacing them (currently 3 in use) with 2 better ones. I currently am using a TP Link WR841N, a D Link DIR615 and an Asus RT-N12. We have Virgin 152Mbit Internet...

    As I said earlier it's running Ubuntu Server ATM, I installed lamp last night and I've got the "It works!" Page. How do I go about adding more sites etc? Also, would I be able to set limits on sites storage, say 10GB each or something? A couple of the sites are for friends and don't want them...
