Afternoon all,
Currently have a shower pump (salamander) that is located a fair distance from the hot water cylinder. The pump is at the front of the house in the kid's playroom (downstairs) at ceiling height and the hot water cylinder is at the back of the house in an upstairs bedroom. The hot and cold has been fed to the pump in 15mm, whereas for that length of run I'd presume it should be 22mm.
Anyway, when we come to do the bathroom in the next few months I'm looking to relocate the pump to next to the hot water cylinder. Then run 22mm pipe as near as possible to the new shower etc.
My main question is whether this flange (photos below) is a surrey flange or not? I presume it is as the feed that comes out the side is the one that eventually feeds the current pump. That pipe runs to the hot on the bath taps and a tee takes it to the pump.
Any ideas? There doesn't appear to be any markings on it.
Also, can I tee into the pipe before the bend to feed the pump. The rest of the pipe feeds the bathroom taps. The other alternative it to just cut the pipe to feed the pump and run all the bathroom taps from it. For reference, the pipe that tees off at the back wall from the vent pipe is to feed downstairs.
Thanks in advance.
