Simple question really, will removing my power shower result in better or worse performance, boiler/hw tank changes below
Old setup : 24kw floor standing heat only boiler, vented HW tank bed by cold tank, around .75 bar head. Power shower has it's own 15mm output from the HW tank, and it's own 15mm cold feed from the cold tank. Pump rated to 1.6 bar(double ended motor type).
New setup : 30kw system boiler, sealed HW tank. House has cold water incoming 25mm mdpe, to 22mm cooper feeding hw tank. Shower now direct fed from HW tank, and direct fed from cold feed.
as long as the mains water pressure is greater than 1.6bar, the shower should be the same as before? Effectively it's fed with pressure via a 22mm single pipe, split into 15mm hot and cold by way of a big tank. Both 15mm pipes at the shower mixer should still be 1.6bar or above?
