Numpty plumbing question...
New house has awful water pressure in shower. It has a combi boiler feeding the hot water, but still a cold tank in the loft which feeds the cold tap.
I've got decent water pressure in the house otherwise so was going to cut out the loop that fills the cold tank.
At the moment I have a 15mm pipe going up the wall into the tank, then a 22mm pipe that comes out the tank, down the wall and feeds the toilet, sink and shower.
The bathroom will be replaced soon so cheap, quick, solution is what I'm thinking.
Can I get away with a 22mm-15mm reducer, and a short 22mm push fit hose...?
(and cleaning up the paint on the pipes prior to fitting either)
