Hi everyone,
Just wanted some confirmation regarding a PRV fitted to the mains supply in my building. All 6 flats in the building are now connected to the mains water feed supply and the water tanks in the attic have been disconnected (each flat has a combi gas boiler).
I can see there are 2 PRVS in total connected to the pipes (could be more somewhere in total but I just saw 2 prvs on 2 separate pipes on my side of the attic and two on the other side of the attic, I am on the top floor and there are two flats below me.
I would say my flat is around 10 metres high from the ground up. I was the only person in the building connected to the mains water feed for all my water, and a few months ago everyone else got connected. The water pressure is not as good as it was before everyone else got connected to the same mains water supply.
I would like to know that would increasing the PRV to 1.7 improve it as the factor told me all the prv's are set at 1.5 bar, but since everyone got connected my water now sometimes fluctuates when my neighbour is using their taps below me, is that normal?
Any help or advice about this matter would be great thanks.
