water system

hey there.

i've just move into a new house. the main cold water pressure is great. the hot isn't very good at all.

i've got a cylinder in the cubbard upstairs, with a water tank above this and a very small tank in the loft. Should the tank above the cylinder be in the loft too. would that help with pressure??

thanks

yes

the higher the tank the more pressure you will have

or you can pump the hot water
