    To connect the two together tee off from the supply. However, doing this will not increase the hot water supply, how old is your home? What material are the pipes? To increase the hot water volume you must cut into the may and increase the hot water supply to 3/4 inch. Answer my question and we'll go from there. Back to you, Tom

    The one geyser is supplying both bathrooms and unfortunately the pipes split in the wall feeding both bathrooms. The second geyser is supplying the kithen and a sink. I want to feed the kitchen geyser to the bathroom geyser so the bathrooms don't run short of hot water. Years ago I had a plumber that linked 2 geysers together so the one tops the other up. I want to know if I can have the hot water from the one going into the normally cold water inlet of the other so basically the bathrooms will have 350lt of hot water? The pipes are galvanised and copper mixed and half inch and three quarter mixed. Thank you

    Hi Tom,

    How are you doing these days?

    In the UK and EU a hot water heater is also known as a geyser.
