Well into the refurbishment of my sons' flat but I have come across something that puzzles me. My own property has all the cold water to the taps supplied direct from the rising main.
This flat has the kitchen tap supplied by the rising main but all the other cold outlets are supplied from the cold water tank in the loft. The rising main supplying the cold water tank goes via the bathroom where the basin tap and toilet are, so why aren't these just run off the rising main adjacent.
As I am changing the bathroom into two bathrooms is there any reason why I cant just take the cold water off the rising main? The showers are supplied from pump that obviously is fed from cold tank in loft to equalize pressure from hot cylinder.
