Bit of a no-brainer this one, but I'd like to know if I'm right or wrong:-
New bath being fitted soon. It's a shower bath that is quite big, and will take more water to fill than a standard bath. At the moment, the cold feed into the bathroom is from the storage tank in the roof and runs to a pumped shower and the sink. The shower unit is staying, so will still need the stored cold feed to that.
As the bath will probably take a while to fill, I was thinking I should run the cold feed from the mains water, not the stored. There is a convenient supply going to the toilet.
When the existing boiler breathes it's last we will be replacing it with an up to date system and lose the stored hot and cold, so having a cold feed from the mains under the bath will be required for whatever shower solution we need in the future.
Does this make sense? Or would anybody use stored cold for the bath fill?
Thanks
