Hi all, long time lurker here I'm afraid
My cold water tank (Ferham FRL50) has begun to fail, the struts on one side have come loose. I've been able to secure the upper metal tube with cable ties for now, but the lower L Shaped strut keeps popping out of it's channel. So it's got to go as eventually I assume it will fail.
I just had a guy 'round and he was saying because of its size he'd need to put a smaller 40 gallon tank in, but we have digital shower pumps which need 50 gallons according to the specs.
His alternative was to put three 20 gallon tanks joined together, will this affect water pressure?
In my (albeit simple) mind, three tanks joined together with a small pipe is going to be a reasonable amount less pressure than a single 50 gallon body of water?
Am I overthinking it?
