If you are a renter then there is little you can do. Do you rent?

Bob,
I'm guessing, yes, he rents and his location is in Great Britain.
Jam,
If you have no access to to the storage tank you are really limited as to what you can do. If your neighbors have the same problem get together with them and complain as a group. A booster pump and bladder tank could be installed at the outlet of the storage tank to give everybody in the building equal pressure. Good luck, tom

You haven't told me what you think of:

Let me hear back from you. Regards, Tom
