I don’t think we do have a cold water tank - we have a stored hot water tank.

I find that if I have a tap on and say the sprinkler on outside as well - the flow is even more reduced. again is that normal? I’ve never experienced that before in a house.

It’s a new build - I believe most of My neighbours are complaining of a similar issue.

Hi , we are getting around 6 litres per minute at the kitchen tap. Does anyone have any idea what is considered “ normal “ and any suggestions as to what the issue could be ? thanks

Hi Tony , so some of them project 30mm some are flush - they all vary in how much they project out going a long where I presume the cavity barrier is on the same length of wall. On a similar property they are all flush the entire length of the wall.

Thank you very much for your reply - greatly appreciated

Here’s an image of our weep vents and how much they project from the building

Thanks Tony - is that normal to have that then?

Does anyone know what this is ?

The wall is rendered but it is exposed - the house is in Scotland and we regularly get high winds and an awful lot of rain.

Thank you for your reply is this a big issue to not have them?

No I don’t think so - we have them on every other wall of the property. I think it’s more that they have forgotten to put them in.

I had posted this in general construction but maybe better here Hi We have noticed that we are missing weep vents where we have a cavity barrier on the gable end of our house. We have them everywhere else that we have a cavity barrier round the property. Is this likely to be a big issue to fix? And indeed do we need to have this fixed? On a separate note - all our weep vents project around 35mm from the rendered finish on our property - it doesn't look very good - is there a standard that they should meet? I had assumed they should be flush with the wall. Thank you.
