Dan1983 Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 Evening all, We have been in our build just over 2 years now and had a quick question about the shower flow! When you first put the shower on flow/ pressure is really good, then after about 1 minute it seems to reduce a fair bit. our mains pressure seems to be at 2.5 bar and then drops to about 2 bar with a fully open hot tap Cold seems fine and I’ve often felt upstairs it’s too high as when you flush a toilet some of the initial flush water slightly splashes up It looks like there is a PRV on the mains inlet in kitchen but not sure what I can adjust on the cylinder side of things to maybe give better pressure upstairs?

Mattg4321 Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 Do you have a problem with flow rather than pressure maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan1983 Posted November 20 Author Share Posted November 20 Only thinking not Matt as initial flow seems good. I did take the shower head off last night and the filter/ gauze was about 1/4 clogged with plumbers mate type residue. Its had a water softener from new but maybe the head is slightly blocked?
