Any suggestions for a shower

[down2earth]

Hi all,

After a bit of advice, we're having a garage built with an annexe above, the plan is to have a small bathroom with a shower in it. The problem is the water pressure is rubbish so just putting a standard electric shower in would result in being attacked by warm drizzle and I guess that you can't use an electric water pump. I don't particularly want the hassle or expense of having a hot water tank in there so I was wondering if anyone does an electric shower with a integral small pump.

All help gratefully received.

You can't pump mains pressured water, as above you'd need a header tank and then either pump that to a mixer or get the Mira above (or equiv)

yes you can, just not allowed to by water supplier.

I think you can pump up to 12l/s from the main supply so long as you do not drop the suppliers pressure.

Brilliant, just what I was looking for, I would just need a relatively small header tank which shouldn't be too much hassle, thankyou for this post.
