Ask the manufacturer if the mixer is suitable for your system first.

Post back more details if you need more help. icon_biggrin.gif

your shower mixer tap might have a flow restricter. Which will reduce the flow through the shower mixer. you might be better off fitting a low pressure shower mixer tap (usually for storage systems). It will get you much better flow.

Hope it helps..
