I have a thermostatic mixer shower that is fed from mains cold water and a gravity-fed hot tank. The cold cistern is communal (block of flats) and about 18" above the shower head. Needless to say it only gives a trickle out of the shower.......the hot water in the kitchen is pretty pathetic as well (yes, I've seen the post about mains-pressure suitable taps).
Can I fit a pump on the outlet from the hot tank to help equalise the pressures?
All cold water in the flat is mains-fed and any new pipework would have to be surface-mounted (no roof void and concrete floors).....I'd rather not do anything too messy right now since there are tenants in situ and I can't afford a long void period and major re-jigging of the plumbing.
