We have checked as best as poss, and our flow rate appears to be around 28 ltr per min. We have a 4 bed detached with 3 bathrooms and 16 radiators. Have we been sold the wrong boiler? How do we get a plentiful supply to more than 1 tap at a time? And how do I stop a dripping tap...

First post so I hope I'm in the right place. We are doing work in our ensuite and bathroom and will be replacing our bath. The Adamsez bath we have chosen comes with the waste and overflow holes already cut but we, sorry my husband, has to cut the hole for the bath mixer himself. Any tips on...
