    Mixer taps and toilet problems
    Hello,
    Can anyone help? My mother has had a new bathroom fitted which included the fitting of a new cylinder for a power shower and a new water tank in the attic.
    It's a bungalow and the water tank is above the bathroom. Her previous sink had a separate hot and cold tap with good pressure however it appears that the new mixer tap which still has two 'taps' one for hot and one for cold, but all water comes out of the mixer (hope this makes sense!) instead of two separate taps, has no pressure(Nuovella Classique Taps). The plumber said it is because the new pipe at the back is 8ml as opposed to 15ml which was there before which is causing the lack of pressure. Also there is no pressure on the new toilet, the flush is poor. Can someone advise if this should be the case as we can only take his word for it but are a little dubious.

    Kind Regards,

    Sonrii.

    I don't know, you are talking liters. Check out the faucets online to verify or read the paperwork that came with it. The toilet may be adjustable. Make sure the water fills to within 1/4" of the top of the overflow.
