Default Re: Hot water pressure - kitchen tap

yes the info has told me enough.
the plumber should of know better, some need a kick up the backside.
the diameter of the inlets convinced me they are mains tap.
if you get new taps etc try for taps that are nearer to 0.1 bar as poss.
mains pressure taps will state working pressure 1.0 bar.
even 0.5 bar can be abit slow on gravity feeds.
so 0.1 bar are better on gravity but harder to get in 1/4turn because they are cartridges rather than the convensional rubber tap washer.
and cartridges have very small holes.
