Hi Guys,
Just had a new combi installed last week in the loft. previously had an old back burner and tanks etc. Central heating is great, hot water seems fine, but when switching on the cold when the hot is running, the hot turns into a trickle. Clearly related to water pressure?
I new that you can't run 2 hots with a combi and keep your pressure, but surely a hot and a cold should work? What's goign to happen when I instal the new bathroom and mixer taps?
Sorry, a bit unsure of the details of a combi, but my neighbour doesn't get the same results. Will ask the plumber tomorrow.
On a seperate note, is it possible to run 2 seperate supplies off of the street mains in any way and still have them metred. As I'm completely gutting and plan on replacing the mains pipe anyway, I just wondered. It would surely mean that you could run one cold for the hot water supply and one for the cold, without ever comprimising the pressure.
Cheers guys.
