Having fitted a new bath and sink, the hot water flow is somewhat reduced. The system is a gravity with a hot water tank. Can you fit a pump to boost the hot water, and how would you do this.
cheers Dave.

if you have fitted flexitap conns or reduced the bor4e of the hot you could try lifting the heght of the tank to give you more pressure approx 1m per 0.1 bar
