Hot Wife in Cold Shower - Need Advice !!
Now that I have your attention.....when ever the shower/tub is being used,
and either a cold or hot water tap is opened elsewhere in the house, the unlucky person in the shower/tub gets cool water only...there is some mixture of hot and cold, but the water temp drops significantly.... The copper piping from the hot water tank feeding both washrooms is 5/8 inch (outside diameter) throughout. Now, before I go out and purchase a couple of pressure-equalizing fixture sets and have them installed, could increasing the hot water feeder pipes to 7/8 inch solve my problem? I would go with cheaper, easier to install poly pipe. Also, if my problem can only be solved with pressure-equalizing fixture sets, are there pressure-equalizing fixtures that have two taps (hot and cold) so that I don't have rip out tile and drywall to create one center hole. Thanks |
