Hi all. I have a single occupancy house with gravity feed hot water.
The hot cylinder is downstairs with a cold water tank in the loft.
The hot comes straight out from the cylinder then 90’s up to the first floor bathroom tap, then the bath & back downstairs to the kitchen sink. There is no flange or branch to a vent pipe from the cylinder. There is a vent/overflow pipe to the cold tank which as far as I can see is somewhere on the hot run after all the taps. Can and is there a pump I can use to boost the hot pressure? With out having to worry about a flange or where the overflow is situated? Ideally I’d like to put the pump after the bathroom sink & before the bath( under the bath) if not on the vertical run up from the hot cylinder. I’ve looked at the Grundfos ssr2 & the salamander ct55 but worried about the air bubbles from the cylinder being a big issue. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you. Tony
