    Installing shower bath - totally baffled!

    Went with Option 1 as in the end it came down to what was going to cost lest / take the least time. My fuse box is at the other end of the house and downstairs - to get an electric cable from here would have caused total chaos! Fed up into the loft and back down into the bathroom. I'm...

    Installing shower bath - totally baffled!

    Ok correct you are - there is another hot pipe that feeds the en suite shower. Thanks for your help. So I guess that leaves me 2 options? 1) connect up a feed to this pipe and route it to the bathroom to use as hot water in there - will this effect performance of say both showers if they...

    Installing shower bath - totally baffled!

    Hi All, Just installed a new shower bath and we decided to go for a bath mixer tap that has a shower connected. All went well with installing it, but the mixer does not mix the water - the only way I can get hot water out of it is to switch the cold off completley and have the hot on full...
