Hi
My gravity fed shower has really low pressure. Ive checked the piping and the hot supply is fed from the vent pipe off the boiler. The pipe is teed out the top of boiler,
It goes down the way to other outlets, and up the way is the vent line which hangs above cold tank in loft. The hot pipe going into the shower is teed off the vent line, in the loft just before it hangs in tank. Is this whats causing the extremely low pressure? Is there anywhere else I could tee off? Maybe the vent line is actually the lowest pressure? Coming out of the tank it just looks like a tee piece, not a flange. Would that make a difference? Im trying to think of all options before fitting a pump.
