Hi thanks for the reply. The bloke isn't very friendly. I know when questioned by others he has got all aggressive with a few people (getting in their faces shouting etc including women) hence I am reluctant to get involved. That said if he is ripping her off then I will try to explain this to...

Hi. Can anyone help me? I am concerned about a quote an old lady has had for sound proofing a house and wondered if anyone with appropriate knowledge can advise if this is normal? Essentially old, but attempting to be independent old lady owns a small 2 bed house and converts them into in to...

Thanks for the replies. Yeah thats the correct pump. It feeds via 22mm pipe so I assume it will be able supply my house and my understanding is that it can supply hot/ cold independently go not believe that would be an issue. How difficult would it be to amend the water supply to...

Hi I wonder if anyone would be kind enough to advise me? I currently have a gravity fed system. The pressure to the taps are very poor (as can reasonably be expected), however the shower is powered by a pump. I am considering my options. Would be is be possible (and if so how easy /...

I dont have time to watch The Sopranos, I'm too busy trying to wash the shampoo out of my hair. [/list]

Hmmm, I think my post has some how become off track. I am a reasonable person. I am not looking to get out of paying for satisfactory work and I would not expect him to make complex equations based on the pressure of shower I require. I have had several friends look at the shower all of...

Thats pretty much what I was asking... I have supplied 3 different pumps and 3 different showers and the pressure is still poor. If the new pipe work he installed (pipe size, valves, fittings used, restrive valves) is causing the low pressure then in some way I feel he is responsible for...

Attempting to get something tangible, I have measured the flow rate using my stop watch and a 14 litre bucket. The 2 bar pumps pushes out 6.08 litres per minute. The instructions for the shower state it should give 8 litres per minute at 0.5 bar. I am now thinking that the pressure is...

Thanks again for the further replies. I appreciate your response. I was expecting more pressure but can appreciate what you are saying and even though it is not the response I was hoping for, I am reassured by an independent balanced view. No I did not ask him to work anything out. Maybe 22mm...

Hi Thanks for the replies. To clarify, we only ever use one shower at a time, hence the 1.6 bar pump. I assume this should be adequate to give us a "power shower" on one shower. As discussed we tried 3 separate showers. One requires a minimum of 1.5 bar pressure and another 0.5 bar. The...

Hi. We have replaced one big bathroom with 2 smaller ones upon buying a new house. We have a gravity fed system. To feed the 2 new showers we purchased a 1.6 bar shower pump.There are only 2 of us at the moment so we will only ever use one of the showers at a time, so in effect the pump...

I have some plasterers redoing my house. I have a few concerns with their work. If any experienced people would be kind enough to let me know if this is an acceptable way of working I would appreciate it. I have had a builder block up a fireplace and internal window bricked up and some...
