I want to greatly improve the ****poor hot water to all of the taps in my
sisters house. It's a bungalow and the cistern that feeds the HWC is 1.5
metres above and to the side by a couple of metres. Moving the cistern is
not an option. Using a stuart turner 1.4 bar single pump and a warix flange
so the pump doesn't try to pump bubbles, how do I join into the hot water
outlet/vent pipe? Thanks

You will have to cap off/replace the existing outlet/vent so it becomes just
a vent, then take off from the warix flange to the pump and then to the
current hot supply.

Check also what the max temp is to the pump some are limited to 55 deg C so
a Temp regulator might need to be fitted.

I did something like this last year, and put my pump (Grundfos booster) in
the HW outlet of the cylinder.

If I read your post correctly, you're considering putting the pump in the
cold water feed to the cylinder, and I don't think that's the correct way.

When I was considering it, I asked in this ng the question that was
bothering me - if I pump *out* of the cylinder to increase flow, how does
the water to replace it get *in* to the cylinder, and the wiseacres
(fergotten who they are now) explained that I must make sure the flow in is
good, by having 22 or 28 mm pipes, minimal length and as few sharp bend as
possible from the CW tank to the cistern.

I did and it works a treat
