    Scalding hot water + rads on HW circuit?

    Without knowing your exact system it's hard to say. Normally when bathroom rads come on with the hot water it's because they were piped up on the hot water circuit so that in the summer months when you have hot water on it will heat the bathroom rads only so that your towels dry. As for the...

    Fit a tank to an electric shower that is suitable for a tanked cold supply. The shower will have its own integral pump. You will always have a good shower. There are other options available but could be costly, like an accumulator or break tank and booster set. A cheap but possibly not...

    BSP shower connection - just loads of PTFE?

    Ptfe is fine, if you can get some loctite 755 (liquid) or loctite 55 (rope/string). If using ptfe give it about 15 wraps. So long as you measure accurately then the wall plate elbows are fine and generally cheaper the pre made brackets.
