Evening all, I currently live in a bungalow that has a hot air heating system and 140L electric immersion tank for hot water. No radiator setup / combi boiler. Overall we are really happy with the heating system as it is fast to heat up the home and no radiators. We have one bathroom which had...

Unfortunately the old bath pipework goes under the existing electric shower tray so would require ripping it all out to have pipes coming from below it, as well as adding a cold water supply from the tank as they are all mains cold water at the moment in there. This is just a stop gap for a...

OK damn. How would anyone use a power shower in a bungalow then? The diagram i posted above from the supplier states 75mm minimum between tank and top of the shower unit. EDIT Ah I think you may have mixed up the 0.2 min pressure output with the min pressure input:

The distance between the bottom of CW tank and shower head would be approx 110cm. Sorry I had indeed missed the S, the power shower is the Triton 2000SR. I have had another look and tried to think of the best approach for my setup and now thinking of the follow: 1) Take a 22mm to 15mm T just...

Thank you for replying, really helpful advice. One thing I am struggling to get my head around is if it is OK to have a pipe from the immersion going up into the attic to feed the power shower from above. In my head I imagine the pressure will be weak as most installations seem to be under the...

Currently only one which goes to the immersion tank: This also is as low as one could go so not sure how I will ensure the cold feed to the shower is lower than this. Need to swap this to shower feed and install a higher immersion feed? I thought a power shower with built in pump should have...

Hi Everyone, I am looking to install a Triton AS2000R Power Shower in place of my existing old electric shower. I need to run pipes for the hot and cold water down through the ceiling as a temporary measure until we get around to a full bathroom refit in a few years. We just want a working...

Hi Everyone, I am currently looking to upgrade my current electric shower with a power shower. Whilst doing some research on what I currently have and how I can go about the upgrade I noticed that my current shower has a MCB at the CU. I believe the shower should be protected with a RCD...

Wow, over a year and no progress :whistle: So during the summer we had some quotes to have our bathroom completely redone to include power shower etc, however the quote for over £11k will now have to wait till after this financial sh*t storm passes. So in the meantime I am looking into if it...

Apologies if this is lazy asking here but makes it easier being able to fire questions. The Mira Platinum data sheet says 16l/min :Link, what tank size would suit a couple do you think?

Thank you for such a detailed reply, super useful! Can I ask, if we went with 2a and kept the existing vented HWC and installed a pump, does that all hold true for the digital style pump/controller combos? Like this: Mira Platinum Dual Valve & Controller Or would I be better off going with...

That's encouraging. I guess when I see the size of the salamander style pumps they look so much more 'beefy' than the integrated pump / controllers that I imagine you are making a sacrifice on shower pressure / experience.

I was wondering if I could pick the brains of you knowledgeable people. I live in a 1970's bungalow that currently has a small Mira Go shower that is simply fed from a mains pipe via the attic. I am looking to renovate the entire bathroom this summer and so looking into what is the best way to...

Hi Everyone, I need to maximise the space in my garage and so am thinking about adding one long shelf above the garage door. Roughly 600mm deep by the 2400mm width. I am aiming to slide my large storage box's between the rafters and generally have it as one large space so ideally want to...

I just assumed it needed to to keep everything in place when it heats up. Are you saying it is most likely just so it is levelled off and doesn't need to adhere to the wood? Thanks

Can anyone advise on how best to adhere concrete to wood? Basically I am building a pizza oven on Oak sleepers with the goal of something like this: Mine: The instructions for the pizza oven kit say to lay a bed of mortar for the base, but reading about online it seems people say normal...

Perfect. I was actually going to render with 1 part cement and 4 part render sand, could I just render the too edge with angle bead to the height I need and use that? I assume it can take the weight OK?

Hi Everyone, I am part way through constructing a pizza oven in my garden and am currently trying to get the base which is oak sleepers to level off with a slight slope away from the wall so water doesn't pool. I wondered if anyone has any advice how I can even out the top of the wall they are...

Thanks Andy, I had actually just found these and mid research if it might just be a washer needing replacing, but given the price I'll go with this.
