Hi, I've got an Economy 7 Hot water tank, the one with the cold tank directly on top of the Hot water bit. What do I need to change this system to to get better hot water pressure??? It's got two immersion elements in it currently but want to know what my options are please. Help!

change the cylinder and have a loft feeder tank, or have a high pressure hot water cylinder such as a megaflo. latter will give you a better result but more expensive.
 
Raise the cylinder. Is there a loft above? Some strengthening work may be needed.
 
Is the cold tank seperate from the hot water cylinder, or is it part of it? If the cold tank is separate but not feasible to raise the cold tank at least 1 metre higher than the cylinder then pumped hot water might be an option.

I know what my money's on:

Yeah, reading it again, sounds like you're right Charnwood, probably is a combination cylinder.
