I am in the process of getting my entire central heating system replaced and have been recommended a megaflo cylinder. However, the water pressure to my property is 10.5 - 11 litres per minute (1 bar), which I have been told is too low for the megaflo. The British Gas engineer said it needs to be a min of 20 litres and ideally 25 litres per minute for them to recommend fitting.
Is there any way I can get around this? I am having an open vented boiler fitted (I am not replacing the pipework and have therefore been advised that this is what I should go for). I have two power showers currently using a shower pump. The pump was replaced recently (2nd hand via ebay!). Ideally, I would like to get rid of the water tank in the loft and I don't know how long the shower pump will last, which is why I am keen on the megaflo. Otherwise, I will have to retain the shower pump and water tank and use a standard cylinder- not a disaster, but not ideal either.
Any advice would be much appreciated (laymans terms please! My heating/plumbing knowledge is limited).
Thanks
