As part of the ongoing upgrade to the facilities at my B&B business I wish to fit a mira verve mixer shower unit to one of the bathrooms.
It has a gravity fed H&C supply but unfortunately there is not sufficient head (its the top floor) to provide sufficient pressure as advised by the installation manual. It says minimum of 5 meters and the room only has 3 meters head pressure.
I assume I will need to fit a twin impeller pump to boost pressure of the H&C supplies but the shower intallation manual says the pump MUST be installed on the floornext to the cylinder!!!!
This is not really practicable for my situation and it would be far easier to install the pump on the floor under the bath or in a cupbopard adjacent to the bath where I have easy access to both the H&C supplies.
Why must I intall the pump next to the cylinder???? Can I install it next to the bath????
