putting tank in loft!!

[WaterTight]

But what is the worthwhile reason for raising it once in the loft? Tiny, barely noticeable increase in output at tap. And all it took was spending the time and effort constructing a platform.

I think we have our wires crossed mate, that's why my first pointed out there's going to be hardly any increase in pressure for a lot of work. I don't think the op realised this

yeah no i get that. i'm more wondering why anyone ever did so in the first place.

 

[lambchop]

Lol most probably there were a lot of plumbers that needed the work, maybe one of the ye olde Skool can shed some light

Un vented or a pump

As for why would you do it. If any of you have ever lived in a house with a gravity fed shower you would appreciate every foot matters. It doesn't matter a fuvk with the taps.
Personally i'd throw the tank in the bin and fit an unvented or a combi is cheaper to run.
No need to go around like the cobblers bairns.

So basically a tank raised in a loft is only ever there to turn a really rubbish shower into a vaguely alright shower?

It's the way you sell it to them
it will be like standing underneath a Balinese waterfall
