I did post before but was not very clear so here goes. Have moved into a new house and the plumbing is like this.
Boiler in kitchen, immersion heater first floor, massive tank in loft which seems to have cold water in it and small tank in loft with hot water in it.
Central heating and hot water and cold all work as expected.
It's the shower that's the issue, if in the bath I get the mix right and then lift the plunger for the shower the water is cold, so you virtually have to turn off the cold but then the pressure out of the shower head is awful. It seems like the cold water pressure overwhelms the hot ? I can't seem to find a way to reduce the cold pressure in bathroom ?
Does this make sense, is this a known problem ? Oh and how do I fix it.
Regards
