Default Megaflow Query

What's the reply likely to be if I call Severn Trent and ask them to
turn the flow up?


20 lpm will almost certainly be within what they consider to be their
contractual obligations. It is on the poor side of normal, but not as bad as
some get. Your only hope is that the problem is between the street and your
cylinder. Compare with other nearby houses to see if they are any better.
Make sure the stop cock is fully open. Make sure they piped the main run to
the cylinder in 22mm and your main supply to the stop cock in 25mm MDPE.

My fear would be, however, that the entire district suffers from low
pressure, as a new house will have a new water supply anyway.
