Hi
Could anyone provide me with some possible causes and solutions for a drop in hot water pressure when two hot water taps are being used?
I have a Worcester greenstar 30 cdi condensing system boiler for sealed systems that provides domestic hot water and hot water for underfloor heating. The boiler is also connected to a 280L thermalstore cylinder which can take a secondary heat source like solar if we wanted to install solar thermal at a later stage. Thanks in advance.
 
Incoming main supply not up to the job, was it flow and pressure tested prior to fitting Thermalstore? If it was ok and now not it could be a blockage ie a filter or stoptap not turned fully on.
You may need the main supply pipe increasing to 22mm
