    Hi,

    Is anyone else noticing low mains water pressure today and over the last few days? This would be the cold water tap in your kitchen. I'm in the Crescent but if it's happening in the surrounding areas let me know too.

    Thanks,
    Michael.

    Not sure its related-I've been in Charlesland Court since August. I thought I had figured out radiator/water systems, but the last two week no hot water. I have been researching for two days on wt* it could be. new to boiler/water pump systems (spoiled but poor american used to basic electric/gas water heaters and central air)

    I finally found a manual on the boiler, which gave several reasons, and as the boiler pressure is near zero, I am assuming the pump isnt topping off as it apparently should. It didnt occur to me others might be having issue...

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!! still trying to find manuals on the oven and fridge units installed when neighborhood built-a whole other nightmare!!

    You should be able to redirect water from your tank to your boiler to bump the pressure back up. My boiler pressure dropped one time while bleeding the radiators.

    your system would be either filled openly via your attic tank or pressureized from the cold feed entering the house i.e a closed system
