www.insigniarange.com Last Modified: 19/06/2017 Pressure Requirements from your house supply We recommend a bar pressure between 2.5 and 3.4 BAR. If you have a combi boiler system no problem should be experienced. If you have a gravity feed older type installation (hot water tank type usually less than 1 bar) you will almost certainly need a pump.
