Hi,
I am planning to install a power shower and have a Stuart turner 3 bar dual pump for this purpose. Currently there is a low pressure open vented system supplying a thermostatic mixer with 15mm pipe. I plan to upgrade this to 22m john guest speedfit. The trouble is that the only reasonable place I can install the pump is in the loft space below the cold water tank. This calls for the addition of an ‘anti gravity loop’ from the essex flange on the tank to the pump inlet. However space is severely restricted by the tank and I am struggling to get the loop in using pipes and bends. Is it acceptable to use a flexible hose in this case? Any recommendations on what to sit the pump on (apart from its anti vibration feet) to reduce noise?
Thanks
Bobby
