Hi, im after advice on boosting pressure to my kitchen tap,

Can i use a grundfos watermil shower pump (BP65D AP030) To boost hot water pressure from my direct vented imersion cylinder to my kitchen taps in a one floor flat?? Getting ridiculous pressure after new cylinder and monobloc taps/pipes, Any advice would be appreciated Thank you
 
You can use a salamander CT single end pump, but you will need to have the cylinders hot water outlet adapted to suit the pump manufacturers installation recommendations and keep the stored water temperature at 55° c . Kop

Warning ⚠️

If it’s a flat, do you have a fortic tank? You can not pump these as there is not enough stored water in the header tank. You need a 25 gallon feed tank to pump the hot.

If that is your only problem, you are better / cheaper to buy a kitchen tap that is suitable for low pressure.
