Hi, can I install a single impeller negative pump to increase the hot water pressure to my shower and taps? The hot water is gravity fed from the cylinder on the same level. There is no cold water tank so the cold supplies are all mains fed.

It's a combination cylinder with 2 small tanks part of it. One which supplies the cylinder and one to supply the central heating.
What options to rectify the problem would I have?

negative head impellers are for a pump above the cylinder- just put a standard pump at the foot of the cylinder. as your bathroom cold should be mains, just pump the hot.
Not necessarily, may depend on the age of the property.
fortic cylinder, need to check the loft for a holding tank. chances are there isn't one- or why the expense of a fortic?
I'd said negative head because the shower head is slightly higher than the cylinder.
No there's no tank in the loft. It's an ex council house with the original central heating system.
