Water Pressure In Your Home

Water pressure is the force of water flowing through your pipes. The water pressure depends on a few factors such as; what water system the property has, location of the property and if other water outlets are being used at the same time.

 

Different Water Systems

 

1) Combi Boiler System

A very common water system these days. The mains water is heated directly to give instant hot water in the combi boiler system. This system removes the need for a separate tank to store hot water. Combi boilers can be placed in the kitchen, garage or cupboard, and as this system uses the pressure of the mains supply, you can get a powerful shower without the help of a pump. The ideal showers to fit such systems are instantaneous electric showers that can be fitted directly to the cold mains supply, which supplies hot water on demand.
