My water pressure is really poor and results in poor water flow from my shower.

Occasionally the shower won't even work because it hasn't got enough water pressure.

I have a 6mm cable so I am told I can only go up to 8.5kw shower.

Recently I decided to retile my bathroom so I don't fancy pulling all the tiles off to fit a shower with a seperate pump.

I currently have a triton rapide r2 8.5kw.

Please can you recommend the best 8.5kw shower on the market which will get best water flow from poor water pressure.

Many Thanks

Don't think you can pump mains-fed showers??

And it never occurred to you to sort the shower out first?

You went and did something that would prevent you from fitting a different type of shower, or a more powerful one?

FFS.
 
You can get pumped showers with the pump integral to the shower unit, but you need a hot feed to that area.

Oops. Looks like you're stripping tiles off tonight!! ;)

I believe they also require a gravity fed supply, not mains-fed.

sfletch, turn the temperature dial to its minimum setting - does the pressure increase much?
 
you can also get pumped electrically heated showers.
