Hi, I would appreciate any advice on this.
I need to install a shower pump for my open vent system, it's all in a flat so I am investigating negative head pumps (CWS and HW cylinder are in the airing cupboard, no loft!!). However, i was wondering if I could still use a 'normal' pump (non negative head). I understand that I can 'kick start' a normal pump by lowering the shower head, but what will happen when i raise the shower head back up and the pressure drops, will the pump stop pumping (as it reads it as a 'turn off' off the taps??) It seems lowering the shower head to waist height would be enough to get it going.
Thanks for any advice!
