    Baxi 105he loosing pressure

    I have a baxi 105he instant that keeps loosing pressure. I have to top up the rads everyday now but to be honest it only takes a quick blast on the filling loop to get presure back up. I did a little investigation today and i have noticed a drip from the pressure release pipe? I am assuming...

    Gravity fed shower.

    Cheers softus, I think i will connect it tomorrow and see just how bad or good it is. I will then decide wether to fit a pump. Would you advise a twin impellar type then rather than a single ? Are the pumped dhowers electricaly heated or do they just pump the hot water from the tank ?

    Gravity fed shower.

    Brick coursework varies in gauge front to rear of house?

    Ged, My house (1940's build) is exactly the same. in the end i did the brickwork at the front of the house in line with the original. That is the most noticable area. At the back, it did run out a little. I checked the footings and also the build upto DPC and i had only lost 5mm over 18...
