    shower another shower kw question..

    I have an Aqualisa shower which works from the loft and is ideal, just comes off the loft power via a fused spur..a bit expensive but i'm not sure how many other makes are on the market. Best not to overload your existing electrical system if you can avoid it.

    shower another shower kw question..

    Chances are it will be a 100amp main fuse but this will need to be checked by whoever is installing the new shower. What Taylor is asking is wether you have 1 or 3 phases coming into your home.I'd say it's unlikey it's more than one.Is there just one main cable coming through the floor into...

    shower another shower kw question..

    Pretty much doubtful IMO.Approx 118 amps? Plus the odds of both showers being on..plus the whole hob..plus the oven on full pelt? This is based on a 100 amp main fuse BTW. Would have to have the whole house singing and dancing for that to happen.I'd fit a mixer shower in order to avoid such a...

    economy 10

    I'm not 100% sure Jack to be honest but somone in the know will reply soon for you mate. The radiators we used all had 24/7 timers on them so we just ditched the economy 7 and used a normal RCD CU and used SFS's on each outlet.

    economy 10

    We did a job not too long ago that invloved this. Instead of mobile heaters though we fitted the new Gel filled radiators all around the house..15 in all and changed the SFS's to new items and changed the board to a 15 way RCD unit.I suppose all your doing in this case it having a load of...

    shower pump

    I suppose it all comes down to access mate at the end of the day..would have to see the layout of your house/bathroom in order to find the best solution. Rocky is right and i'd re-label the 6mm as 'Loft Power Supply' then use the power for both the fan and the pump.I'd come off a SFS for the...

    fan downlight / bathroom lighting

    I think in a small space with only a small amount of lights L.E.D's are the best option..i keep an eye on the prices and they have been coming down since they first come out.
