A bit off thread but any idea of the cost to change from gravity hot water to fully pumped system?
Jo
I looked into this as I have a long pipe run to a bathroom and bath fills very slowly.
The cost of a pump is £100-150 or so but the plumbing and electrical costs depend on your installation and were substantial in my case.
I have also been told that you can have problems with noise and vibration. I was a guest in a house with a power shower and the noise and vibration was unacceptable to me.
If it is physically possible, I have been told that raising the cold water feed tank can improve flow considerably.0 -
That is a different type of pump. To get a fully pumped CH system you have one pump for the heating and one for the hot water, or you can have one pump for both and a motorised valve. A heating pump costs about £35 .0
