I'm not one for water saving or more efficient HWS just gimme a decent shower!

End of Rant!


I will be talking to a plumber to see what can be done about is as we installed 2 shower heads in one shower so we could both have a shower at the same time. It turns out it was a waste because of the water pressure only one tap can be going at any one time.

Sound like you have a pipe sizing problem........
How old is the house?
