Help please !

I am getting a new unvented hot water cylinder/system fitted (together with solar panels) as I am having my loft converted to include an additional bathroom in the attic.

My problem is that I already have a power shower (triton aquasensation thermostatic as2000t) fitted in my existing bathroom and am unsure whether this will still work or not.
Do I need to remove the power shower and fit a mixer shower or will it be OK?
Is there a way around replacing the shower (eg removing electrical power to the power shower or setting the flow rate high/low) to keep it working.

Help please !

as quoted from the triton shower manual

Maximum static inlet pressures 1 bar or 10m (supplies must be gravity fed at nominally equal pressures

so it looks like a new shower im afraid but please wait for the responses of the other members as the may know of a way to over come this situation
 
with unvented. id defo take this unit out. its not worth the hassel.the unvented installlers should have given advice to a situation like this, on a survey.going from gravity to mains pressure is major issue, as concerned with pipework and fittings.as little as the restrictor for a toilet fill.etc
 
I'd say don't even try. the only thing you can do is contact triton directly and ask them.
