Trickle :(

Learn some manners.
Nah mate, you need to!
You have come on my thread with absolutely no substance, no advice. The only input you commented on was a piece by me saying
'Any other answers or solutions anyone?'
How is this offensive? I had already said I didn't want to rip up my floor or my tiles off the wall so why can't I ask if there is any alternate solutions before I do this?
I sure picasso is big enough himself to tell me if he was offended, I even said I was sorry if it sounded that way.
 
Sorry mate you misunderstand, I am saying its NOT a good idea to fit a single pump, if your going to do it do it right and fit a twin pump feeding the hot and cold in the bathroom with equal pressure supplies.

Hi, thanks for the reply again. Just curious what a single pump would be used for then? In what situation would it be used?
 
Hi xant14,

When someone posts something you don't like, don't bother replying. Just click on their name and then "ignore" in the box that appears. I do this a lot and it makes the forum appear really civilised.

Thanks for tip...you are now on ignore..(y)
 
I am not offended mate, I was a bit surprised at "any other answers or solutions" but then realised you wanted to hear what you wanted to hear, unfortunately the best way is not the easiest or cheapest.
 
Ok so now I have chased a pipe in at lower level running at skirting board level then up to the tap. It is 100% better, but still a tad slow. I still have my reduced bore isolating valve in, but even if I take it out I think the tails would restrict it. It is definitely positive head now ( I didn't think it was negative before tbh). Would a single pump now be an answer?
Downstairs tap is fine.
 
Who are you? The primary school teacher?

No, @Steelmasons plus many others of us on this forum, would be the teacher to clueless DIYers that think water can flow uphill but chooses to do so for free in spare time after a long days graft and just expects a degree of politeness and thanks for doing so. It constantly beggars belief that people come on here asking for advice and then chose to argue the toss when they don't receive the advice that they want to hear.

Now if you were honest with us and yourselves you would have said that you don't want the expense of taking the floor up and that you are running shy on funds. We constantly hear these excuses day in day out but the crux of the matter is down to money. There is only one way to do a job and that is properly as you have been advised. You have just realised that you have a made a very big and possibly expensive mistake.

FFS!!!!
 
FFS What?
And what did steelmasons teach me? Certainly nothing relevant about this thread Picasso has already said he was not offended so why steelmasons input on my manners?
No big expenses, a few meters of pipe, more time wise.
