Connecting existing hot/cold shower pump to Mira Sport Max

[inigo montoya]

Hey guys,

Any idea if this is possible? Have moved into a new house, where we're not convinced the mains pressure is high enough to run the two Mira Sport Maxes we were bought as a gift. The house however, has a shower booster pump beside the hot water tank.

Is it possible that it could be used to provide a psuedo-mains high pressure water supply from the attic cold water tank to the showers? (Like the Triton T450i)

Or should we just bite the bullet and get pumped electric showers instead? (we don't want to be dependent on the hot water tank for showering y'see...)

Any advice welcome.

Cheers!

Sounds OK in principle, provided the initial low pressure flow through the electric shower is enough to trigger the flow switch on the pump (probably won't be though!). Best consult with Mira and pump manufacturer.
