I have an air source heat pump and as a result (I think) the water in all the taps, particularly bathroom taps) is at low pressure.( It takes ages to fill a bath!!). How do I get over this problem? Is it possible to install a pump and where should this be sited?

Did you have an open vented hot water system before? You inc mains pressure may be low causing a low flow to the taps. This is presuming you did not have an unvented cylinder previous to your ashp installation.
 
An air source heat pump has nothing to do with tap water pressure.
It just heats the water.

A pump will increase water pressure for showers and the like.

It does if he previously had an open vented hot water system and moved to an unvented system with bad mains pressure. You'd like to hope the installer checked this before the change over if this is the case.
