Hi all, I am a bit disabled with a bash on the head so unable to work in life now, but still able to learn bits at a time and do some things for myself. lost concept of time and dates but no problem to me, only others and cognitive functioning is affected. I have taken on a large old house with some water problems that I will work through in time. When not able, I will use pro's to do certain items, but some I will cure myself.
The house has total private water systems, so no water bills to any water company or shareholders.
It is neglected over the years but only in need of some repairs etc to get it all working great again. I will admit in seconds if I do not know something and say if I cannot do something, instead of yes and making a massive mess or disaster. I can manage most things in small chunks so I hope to use your expertise in here to help me fix a few water problems this end.
There is no water pressure, so a pressure system is fitted to the oil burner to allow the rads to work. Someone has placed the water tanks in a downstairs loft in a back kitchen!!.. I kid you not, in a two storey house. The water pressure at present is not an issue, (no family needing baths or showers daily), as I seem to have an idea how to cure this, by simply moving the tanks into the upstairs loft, or installing a slim high tank to allow gravity flow to increase pressure.
All I can say is the entire water and plumbing has been attacked by amateurs for its entirety it seems with every gauge of pipe you can think of stuck into each other, in what I would describe as caveman mentality of plumbing.
