I’m in a quandary about what size shower pump to fit; I need to feed 2 showers, each fitted with a 200mm drencher head - but rarely likely to be used at the same time. Salamander are pointing me towards a 2.2 bar, 22mm feed pump & I’ve been trying to imagine exactly what delivery flow rates of 20 litres/min @ 2 bar will mean! I’m wondering if it may be a bit OTT? Would a 15mm feed pump, giving 12 litres/min @ around 1 bar do all I want! Or will I be disappointed?
The flow rate of our current, totally naff shower is only 2 lites/min @ sort of ‘drip’ pressure but I’m not sure if I need a shower that’s going to provide 10 times that; 1 tank of hot water for a 10 minute shower! I don’t want to drill holes in my head or surf on the water going down the plug hole but I have no previous experience of what to expect; can any of you guys advise? Will I be disappointed if I go for the lower output pump?
