Are the supply lines from the cold water storage tank large enough? With under sized lines and 200mm reduced head pressure this could be the cause. The other thing I see that could be a problem is the valve on the cold water line to the heater is this fully open? There is also most probably a check valve on the inlet of the heater but that is a guess could this be plugged or obstructed? You did not mention anything about the cold side is it running ok? | |
