Gravity fed water preasure

[versatile75]

Is there a formular for messuring the Bar preasure from a gravity
fed system ,or do I require a metre I calculate the drop from the
cold storage tank outlet to the hot tap outlet at 2.6 mtrs and am hopeing
this gives me 0.5 bar

You can buy a gauge fairly cheap which screws on to washing machine valve on the hot, or fit one.

I thought it was 0.5 bar per meter height.

10m is 1 bar. 2.6m is 0.26 bar.

denso is near enough spot on 1/5 your wish pressure and that's what you have.

I mistyped, it should have read a 1/2 not a 1/5
