Power Shower Pump

[djrpowell]

Hi, i am a newbie to this.

I have a New Showerforce Mixer Shower and it states that it can be made into a power shower with a pump. We have a hot water tank and boiler.

I want to know, if anyone can tell how i can do this, i.e. i know what to connect but what things do i need to look out for as i have not done this before.

i.e. where do i put the pump and also what happens if i connect it to the whole bathroom istead of just the shower, as the only place i can see is under the bath and that does not make sense in case it leaks!

I am only starting this as i cannot see anything all about this topic!

Thanks

Daniel

Proper answer is a bit long. Look at websites of Stuart Turner, Salamander, New Team, Aqualisa, Watermill for instructions and pictures.
Just remember, all pumps make a nose, and all pumps are likely to leak. So they are best placed in something like the cut-off bottom of a heating header tank and inspected from time to time, or a fixed warning pipe (overflow) put on that shallow tank.
Do a search on Flanges. Essex is best.
