hi all got a question for you, been doing some unrelated work for a customer, she has vented system. the hot water pressure is so c**p she has had a pump fitted to supply hot water to their en-suite however now she wants to increase the hot pressure to the main bathroom, wondered if a pump was fitted under the bath within the hot water supply would this increase the pressure or would it pump more water than is available.

depends on mf, but some pumps have to be within 5m of the cylinder and have ventilation around pump, something that may cause a problem with your instal matey. also as the main and ensuite bathrooms will be pumped make sure the cwsc can handle it (80 gallons min)
