A new-build care home in Manchester was experiencing issues with low water pressure and flow. With outlets located up to 30m away horizontally, the existing system struggled to deliver consistent pressure and flow across the building, particularly during peak usage times when multiple bathrooms and taps were in use.
Paramount Heating Services was contacted by a customer when their washing machine was displaying a low water pressure warning symbol, causing each load to take an additional 30 minutes. The customer explained that the washing machine hadn’t been performing as it should for 6 years.
A householder from a West London flat spoke to the Salamander Pumps technical team when they were disappointed with their poor water pressure and flow. The householder had previously experienced a nice strong shower in a different home, so was very unhappy with the current performance of their pressure lacking shower.
When poor water flow during peak times was beginning to cause business problems for a B&B, Chris at Fawcett Plumbing Heating LTD was contacted to see if he could give the customer a solution.
Gary Thomas, a plumbing and heating specialist, was called to a home that had recently had a bathroom renovation but unfortunately were left disappointed with the poor flow they were receiving from the shower.

An owner of a farm was experiencing significant challenges due to a low cold water flow rate of less than 6 L/min. They also required bigger water storage capacity to boost water supply to a sink and an outside tap for jet washing.
Workers within an office block were struggling with insufficient water flow with only 2 L/min at the kitchen due to poor gravity fed hot water supply. It was taking them a long time to fill a basin for washing dishes and filling the kettle.
