Low Hot Water Pressure
Low Hot Water Pressure
Low hot water pressure and poor flow diagnosed and fixed across Barnet and North London — from scaled heat exchangers to undersized supply pipes.
Low Hot Water Pressure in North London, done properly the first time
Poor hot water has several possible causes and guessing is expensive. On a combi it is often a scaled plate heat exchanger or a failing diverter valve; on a gravity system it is head height and pipe sizing; on an unvented cylinder it is usually a spent expansion vessel or a partially closed valve.
We measure incoming mains flow and pressure, test hot and cold separately at each outlet, and identify whether the restriction is at the appliance, the pipework or the incoming supply.
Where the incoming supply itself is undersized — common in older Barnet terraces still on a lead or 15mm supply — we can quote for an upgrade to 25mm MDPE.

Your questions, answered
Only the hot water is weak — why?
That points at the appliance or the hot circuit: a scaled plate heat exchanger, a partially blocked pipe, or a failing diverter valve rather than your incoming supply.
Would a pump fix it?
Sometimes, on a gravity-fed system. On mains-pressure systems a pump is usually the wrong answer and often not permitted — we will tell you which case you are in.
