Hi
I have a Quooker hot water tap installed in the kitchen. When the washing machine in the utility room is on , the shower in the 1st floor bathroom is used or either upstairs or downstairs toilets are flushed the tap starts to vibrate making a lound noise and the hot water flows (slowly) withe the tap closed. I assume this is something to do with the water pressure dropping and if you close the cold water valve to the tap it stops vibrating.
I've installed a check valve in the cold water supply but this hasn't made any difference.
I believe the Quooker requires 1.5bar pressure to work properly so presumably the pressure drops below this when other service are used.
Any suggestionsn how I can resolve this e.g. can I increase the pressure somehow to the Quoker?
Thanks
