Hi everyone just looking for some advice regarding water flow rate:
Does this seems about right or normal as I filled a 10 litre bucket of water from the bathtub mixer tap:
Cold water from tap filled 10 litre bucket in 25 seconds
Hot water from tap filled 10 litre bucket in 60 seconds
I have a red gate valve (22mm) which supplies the water to the flat in a high cupboard, to reduce the cold water flow rate is it okay to turn it until the flow rate is lower or should it be left fully open?
I just want to know if the cold and hot water flow rates are normal and if it matters if I reduce the cold water flow rate by turning the red gate valve.
Any information would be really appreciated many thanks.
