    Vaillant Ecomax 835e Hot Water Cuts Out S53

    What's this pipe

    Hello everyone, I've got a water pressure problem in my loft (actually it's 2.4 bar static, but drops off to almost zero if anyone uses a tap while I'm in my electric shower) So, while investigating the pipework, I noticed this under my stairs (see attached) I expect it's an old gas...
