Install a pump or pressure vessel if you have to, but get the pressure up. You’ll thank me later.

Inline pressure booster pumps can be had at very reasonable prices (€200-300) for ones big enough to pressurize a large single-family house. They make a world of difference to your comfort, and in some cases like mine, make it possible to use gas-fired tankless water heaters, which rely on minimum pressures to work properly.
