We own a building which has a house and 2 flats within it. The whole of the water for all 3 properties is supplied via a mains-filled header tank in the loft above the flats. Each property is then supplied separately from this tank. The pressure in the bottom flat and house is reasonable, the house could do with improving, but in the first floor flat, just below the header tank, the pressure is not high enough to run the washing machine properly.
I am wondering what possible solutions there are out there. It has been suggested that we fit a booster pump for the flat, but I am concerned about noise/vibration and maintenance. I have lived in 2 other properties with pumps and have had endless problems with them and would rather avoid them. Is it possible have the properties attached directly to the mains?
Any other ideas would be appreciated
