Copied from another thread at the request of Tovarishch Sobaka......spasibo bolshoye, Tovarishch, I suppose the enquiry was in the wrong place!
I've just had a new bathroom installed, with the wife's choice of foreign "designer" chrome taps on both the basin and the bath. They look lovely.
But. They only accept 15mm piping, and our old taps were 22mm. So all the piping up to the taps is 22mm, and then the plumber has adapted it to 15mm at the tap connector. Our house is a gravity fed system. The result? A feeble dribble from both hot and cold taps, a particular problem in the bath. These are the sort of things they don't tell you at the showroom..........
My solution sounds radical, but I was intending to do it anyway - fit a combi boiler and get mains pressure everywhere.
Any thoughts?
The only other possible solution I think is to fit a pump for the taps, which I dont' fancy. Or replace the taps with proper ones. Which the wife doesn't fancy. And besides, the bath has already been drilled/cut to accept her fancy schmancy ones. :-(
