Water pressure
The water company said they were doing work on the mains which would mean
low pressure the work has been done but my electric shower keeps cutting out and the low pressure light comes on, I've had a man come out and he reckons the pressure is fine(2bar) but my prob persists (the shower operates at 1.5bar minimium), neighbours reckon their pressure isn't as it was,so what do I do now? |

I had a similar problem. The water man came mid-morning when the pressure was OK but at peak times like early morning the pressure dropped to the point where my old combi wouldn't fire. Keep complaining and eventually they'll do something about it Nick |

Pester them and keep on pestering until they fix the problem. They have perhaps not fully reopened the valves or left a pump off. -- Regards, Harry (M1BYT) (L) http://www.ukradioamateur.org |

Pester them and keep on pestering until they fix the problem. They
have perhaps not fully reopened the valves or left a pump off. Or they might have massively reduced the pressure because they can't be arsed to fix a leaking pipe. If they get complaints from everyone in the street, they might actually dig it up and replace. Christian. |
