Hi Everyone

Hopefully a simple question here.
I am installing three new water feeds to different locations around the outside of the property. One to the garage, one to the pond and another to the garden.
I have two choices. I can pick up the incoming water feed before it enters the property or I can extend from one of the internal pipes and exit the property again.

There is some kind of pressure limiter where the water enters the house, so my thinking is that if there is surplus pressure it would be better to pick up on the incoming feed.
Any advice or comments are welcome :)

Thanks

Steve
 
Are you on a water meter and is it internal or externally ?
 
You can do either then but don’t forget about back flow protection

Hello, I am seeking some advice, I have a POTTERTON PROMAX 28 COMBI Boiler and I noticed yesterday that the water around the house is no longer warming up. The heat exchanger has been changed 6 months ago, so I do not believe it is that. Does anyone have any ideas on what it could be? Thanks

I was stupid enough not to check the position of the pipes under the tiles when installing a toilet and drilled right through the center of a 16 mm copper water pipe. I exposed the pipe by removing a ~30cm section of the plastic sleeve and a ~10 cm section of the pipe around the hole. Several...

Hello all, I'm would like to extend an existing outside tap to another point in the garden. I'm about to pour a concrete patio and was hoping to run the water line underneath. There are existing drain (and who knows what) pipes running along the same wall so I'm nervous about digging too far...
