Seriously guys the man wants an answer.

The fact is all water tanks are built into the roof of multi story hotels in Phuket due to the low water pressure, And a further saftey feature is they actually build in leaks in the roof to catch rain water in the wet season to top up the water tanks.

So no probs with low water pressure. o high floors, in fact the higher your floor the higher the pressure.

Now there is a guy who knows the ins and outs of plumbing. My wife will be interested to hear this. I guess in Kuwait and Egypt where she grew up, they used a different method. Shes got all kinds of stories about not having any water through the daytime, and then having to hoard it when they did get it. And this is only 30 years ago and in nicer buildings.
Just the thought of going without water again makes her a wee bit cranky.
