I once had a flat in a converted warehouse, there were 8 floors, water was fed from a storage tank in the basement by pumps. The pressure was quite high, all flats had a conventional non pumped triton electric shower, so, might be possible for you, depending upon supply pressure/ flow rate. As suggested, best advice is see what your neighbours have if they've renewed their shower
Indeed, as that shower can only be supplied from a tank but you will have a mains cold water supply, in your kitchen at least. Depending on how good that mains pressure/flow is you may be able to convert what you have to a supply for a regular electric shower that will be much much quieter, it just won't be as powerful.

Thanks endecotp - we installed the electric shower because the hot runs cold for a very long time before it turns to hot because we live in large mansion block of flats and the hot water comes from a communal boiler a long way away. That is why we ran a special cable with it's own switch out side the bathroom, took cable under floor floors, removed rows of wall tiles, embedded the cable, retiled the wall to hide cable and also disconnected the previous existing hot water supply to shower and embedded the existing hot water pipe (for previous shower that was there). That is why we do not want to go back to non-electric shower (because water runs cold for too long). Thanks though.
Again... You are limited to another pumped, electric shower, unless your incoming cold main supply has been improved by the transporter!

How long does it take for the hot water side to get hot?
Its cold feed only... No hot water side to the shower.

I should have said how long to get hot water from cylinder to bath basin or sink...
Do you have access to the pipe which supplies the shower? Is it separated from the other pipework? If so, you could put a pump elsewhere where it would cause less disturbance, and have a standard electric shower
