I have changed shower head and still low pressure I have a tank in loft how can I increase the water pressure as I am looking to now replace the head with a rain shower head and replace the connecting hose. If buy a new hose will it help with increasing the pressure and will rain shower head do the job thank you

Hi Paul, this is a common problem with gravity fed systems, the best andwer for this is to fit a shower pump this will increase pressure to approx 1.5 bar and be ample for your new shower head, Martin Maidstone interiors
