New Geyser - Low Water Pressure

Hi Guys,

I have a bit a problem. I recently bought a house. The house is approx 38 years old. We redid one bathroom and then realized that the warm water pressure is too low. On recommendation of the plumber we replaced the old 100kpa geyser with a Franke 150l 400kpa geyser. The geyser has three overflows (drain pan, security valve and pressure valve). After installation, we had the problem that the pressure valve shot out (not only drip) water every time we opened warm and cold in the shower (or any other tap). The plumbers then said that the problem is the immensely high cold water pressure in the area. He said the cold water is pushing back the hot water and that causes the pressure valve to overflow. They then removed the pressure valve out of the ceiling and put it in the garden after the meter. The setup is now municipal tap, meter, my tap, pressure valve. Now the whole house is balanced on 400kpa (its a 400kpa pressure valve), however when I want to water my garden its impractical as 400kpa is too low for a 30m hose pipe. I don't know what else to do. Do you guys have any idea?

Regards,

Florian

Prosecutor says two attackers stabbed NMSU student to death | Lubbock Online

ALBUQUERQUE {AP} Crime scene evidence suggests New Mexico State University student Carly Martinez struggled with two men before she was murdered, prosecutors told jurors at the trial of Jason Desnoyers. The 18-year-old student was driven to a remote Las Cruces mesa , was stabbed more than a dozen times in the head, chest, abdomen, back, thighs and buttocks, and her body was "left to rot" in the desert, District Attorney Susana Martinez said Tuesday. Two weapons were used, a single-edged knife and another instrument, said prosecutor Martinez , no relation to the victim. "Two weapons, two men," she said. Desnoyers, 24, is charged with first-degree murder, conspiracy, tampering with evidence and criminal solicitation. Co- defendant Jesse Avalos , 26, is to be tried separately in September on similar charges. Defense attorney Gary Mitchell contends there was only one weapon. He said Avalos wore a belt with a knife, screwdriver and other tools the night Carly Martin

Stay in a Tiny Shingled Cabin in Austria That Resembles a Bird-Like UFO

Set on a hilly incline and designed by architects Peter and Lukas Jungmann, the cabin appears to hover above ground like some sort of alien object—a stark contrast to its pastoral environment and the traditional Austrian chalets that surround it.  Tiny Shingled Cabin in Austria That Resembles a Bird-Like UFO - Photo 1 of 11 -" /> Because of its irregular, otherworldly form, and how it seems to be suspended in midair, the cabin was named "Ufogel," which is a melding of the acronym UFO and "vogel," meaning bird in German.  Tiny Shingled Cabin in Austria That Resembles a Bird-Like UFO - Photo 2 of 11 -" /> Available for rent through Urlaubsarchitektur, Ufogel’s exterior is covered in rustic Austrian-style shingles, but its sharp angles and asymmetrical shape gives it a distinctly futuristic, nest-like look.  Tiny Shingled Cabin in Austria That Resembles a Bird-Like UFO - Photo 3 of 11 -" /> Within, the split-level, 485-square- foot space acc
