Hi everyone.

I am planning to replace the mixer tap on my bath as the hot water runs very slowly. I suspect this is due to the tap being the high pressure (min 1 bar) type, my system being old world gravity fed. The tap I am planning to buy says it needs min 0.5 bar. Is this likely to work OK or do I need to go for something for even lower pressure? In fact is there an easy way to work out the actual or assumed pressure of my system - for instance a clever formula using the height of the cold water feed tank??!

Cheers

1 bar equates to about 10m static head, how's that for starters?
