I have a gasboiler with an open vented system in my house, which still works fine. I am planning to fit a shower pump (positive head)in the airing cupboard to supply water to a thermostat bath / shower tap and a seperate bathtek steam shower unit. I have seen overviews of how to connect the pump, which seem pretty straightforward except that it states that you should connect the cold water from the storage tank to the pump.
However, I think that all my taps in the house are connected to the mains, including the ones in the bathroom as the pressure is good and when I turn of the mains, the taps stop running. However on lots of plans that I have seen from manufacturers of shower pumps, the taps are connected to the cold water tank.
I suspect that i might have to open the floors up to check how the pipes run.
Would anybody be able to advise me and tell me if there is a way around as I was hoping just to connect the pump, which seems unlikely.
Thanks
