    Low hot water pressure

    It does. I've followed all the pipe work, and the lower part of the cylinder in the loft empties into the base of the cylinder on the first floor. Mains cold then replenishes into the top half of the cylinder in the loft. The valves on the first floor are used to direct water from the bottom...
