Hi I'm new here so hoping someone can help, would really appreciate some advice!
We've just had our old boiler system removed and had a combi boiler installed. We have 3 toilets, 2 showers, 14 radiators. Water pressure in all basin taps and bath taps is strong (cold and hot) - no problems there. The showers run on the combi system (with a thermostat, not mixer) however the pressure is very low compared to the taps. The showers are both ceiling mounted (rain showers) - does the size of the house play a part in this? How can we increase the pressure to the showers, as the taps are absolutely fine (strong). Would really like stronger pressure in the showers :-(
Thank you in advance for your help.

what size are the heads for the showers because the bigger they are compared to a normal hand held head the flow will be the same but spread over a larger area i don't think there is much you can do apart from getting a smaller head but i stand to be corrected
