shower pump

Evening all. Just signed up to the site for some assistance as I'm a rank amateur (with a reasonable amount of DIY sense I think) who is about to embark on a project to refit my bathroom. I'm having to do much more than I envisaged at first as I've been told I need to rip out pretty much all...

Our previous shower pump (Stuart Turner) worked perfectly for around 10 years and then we had problems with starting it. On checking out the old pump I realized that the installation provided for insufficient water-head. So we have re-jigged the pluming to place a brand new twin 3bar pump by...

I need to fit a Surrey/York flange to a hot water tank for better air removal prior to installing a Grundfos shower pump. My issue is that the tank itself has a fixed male 3/4" outlet, in to which is currently a 22mm compression fixing to the DHW supply. The flanges I've seen from Grundfos...

Recently had a bathroom re-fit and ended up with the shower not working properly. The original shower was fitted 20+ years ago. This has been put back. Before re-fit, there was what looked like speaker cable running from the shower valve to a pump (pump by hot water tank in airing cupboard). It...

Fitting out the House of Pain and have hit a wee problem. The roof is twin ridge and quite low pitch so there's not much headroom up there- water level in the hot water header tank is at most 2m above where the upstairs shower heads will be (showers etc not fitted yet) which I suspect will make...

Hi all, So, basically I have a h/w combi cylinder that isn't giving me quite enough flow in my flat and I want to put a pump in. Bath takes an hour to fill (electric shower is used instead) even the kitchen sink and the basin give 2 l/m which is just useless. I've been thinking about pumps and...

Hi all, Recently moved in to a newly purchased house and shower was working fine up until yesterday. Today switched on and no noise from the pump and obviously very low water flow. It is a Showerforce Turbo pump, connected to a hot water tank in the next cupboard and a cold water tank in the...

I have a Jetforce 55 (MK6) shower pump in my airing cupboard sited next to the hot water cylinder. The main bathroom (adjacent) has a bath and shower, both of which utilise this pump (i.e. if I'm running a bath or have the shower on you can hear the pump running). Our en-suite (further...

Hi My mother in law had a power shower and it was with a single hot water pump and the pump was installed on the feed just before the mixer tap and the cold was from the mains, so not near hot tank on the supply to the whole house just by the hot water supply pipe to shower mixer, there was a...

I have a Stuart Turner ShowerMate twin shower pump which has suddenly stopped working properly. It stops and starts and even when it's running the pressure is low. Because this happened a few days after I replaced a ball valve in the header tank in the loft, a process during which some debris...

Hi all, first things first i had a concealed mixer shower installed and my shower pump did not kick in unless i dropped the shower head below the level of my tap heights. The bathroom installers were baffled, so they suggested uprating my shower pump which was a salamander 1.5 bar to a 3.0 bar...

Hi I recently had my bathrooms refitted (main bathroom, en-suite and downstairs toilet). I have a gravity fed system, and based on the size of the showerheads (8 inches wide) I was advised to get a 3bar shower pump (by Salamander), however now I find the pressure is really high water is really...

Hi all! Had a shower issue for years and years. I put it down to the old shower mixer being, well, old...and lived with the problem knowing I was going to renovate the bathroom at some point. That time has now come and gone, and the new shower mixer/pipework is giving me the same headache. Here...

Hello I have a Showerforce Turbo2 shower pump which has been working fine. Needed to drain hot water system recently for another project and now I'm getting no hot water. The pump runs and pumps cold, but when I turn shower thermostat to hot I just get a reduced flow of cold. When I installed...

Hi all, Wonder if I might beg some experience/knowledge on an ongoing issue we have with our shower. It is a pumped system. Pump is in the airing cupboard (see pic) with feeds to the shower going into the loft and dropping down into the bathroom. There are bottle vents at the top of the shower...

Just as a quick sketch is this possible? I would like to install a shower pump in my airing cupboard, due to space I cannot fit it below the cylinder, only on a shelf above. I would have 700mm of static head between the cold water storage lowest position and the pump. The shower head would be...

I live in an old 1930 block of flats and water to my flat (hold & cold ) comes from a communal boiler in the builder. I recently had a new bathroom fitted and I got a nice new shower but realised there is no power in the water coming out. How can I fix this issue and get decent amount of power...

Hi, 1st time I've posted on here so hoping someone can help..... I'm an enthusiastic moderate DIYer looking to install a new ensuite. I have the new suite which includes a concealed 2-way diverter thermostatic shower valve, one of these rain-drenching shower heads and 6 body jets. I have a...
