Hi anyone
Im after some advice on the best and safest way to have a shower pump fitted via a spur for a new shower install to our en-suite.
We have had an electrician around to look, but as I have very little knowledge on electrics and plumbing,
am becoming very confused by what options the electrician has given us 
which are
1) Take a spur from a plug in a bedroom which means getting carpet/floor up etc., which he doesnt really want to do.
2) Take a spur from light switch - which is just outside airing cupboard, cut the plug off the pump, meaning loose pump warranty.
and
3) Put a plug in the airing cupboard, owness on us as its against reg's.
maybe this info not needed but our set up is....
I think we have a gravity fed system
, we have a hot water cylinder tank in our airing cupboard that has a mains cable coming from a small white thermostatic controller attached to it (Danfoss Typa AT) into some sort of sealed socket with a label on which reads "ENSUITE POWER SUPPLY".
There are then 2 further mains cables that come from the 'sealed ensuite supply' one which connects to a "Class F WILO SAMSON PUMP' which i assume is for our current shower, and another to a 4" square box which has a 'hot water' label one side and a 'central heating' label the other side.
1st Question - any comments advice on what this electrician has said
2nd Question - Could a spur be safely fitted to this 'sealed socket' in our airing cupboard
3rd Question - If NOT, would a spur need to be fitted from a mains socket from another room and would floor etc., need to come up
last question - Any alternatives or other advice that could/would help
Thanks ever so much........
