Does it work? In your case it could be the incoming pipe that is already clogged over the years. If your saying some area the water Pressure is small, it could Be due to the water tap of your basin/kitchen sink is clogged with unwanted particles. Simply open te filter cap at the end of the cold/mixer tab and clean it. It that doesn't help it could be due to clogged stopvalve. Hope the tips helped. |

The other outlet having problem is on the first floor right? If so, this is mother nature. If you lift the water tank another 1 meter, you gain more pressure and gain more pressure. water tap is cleaned. stopvalve... how to check ah? sorry nooob question If not maybe is something else. |

Add a booster pump after your water tank outlet and all your low pressure solved.

Else it would be an effort in vain.lol! i thought of that too, but if the pipe is indeed clogged badly..then it must be really dirty and gross. thats why i m considering cleaning it. lol Clean the water tank and install water filter at the incoming mains. To clean up the water pipe, just remove the individual stop cock spindle and flush the respective pipe with pressured water. This is to allow the removal of any of the debris in the pipe. If your mains are strong, you could use them. Else, may need a booster pump. If you are not familiar with these works, better to get a plumber to do it for you. |
