I want a good flow from my 10.8kw shower, but will 15mm pipes be sufficient to make the most of it? goes through two 90 degree tees from the stop cock, about 5 meters away on the lower floor.

Cheers

You could buy a flow cup for around £10 and test the flow rate of your shower
I would suggest 12 litres + to be adequate. James

Or time how long it takes to fill a bucket of water, and work out the flow rate from there.

EG If you can fill a 2 gallon bucket in 30 seconds, that's 18 litres per minute. If it takes a minute, that's 9 litres per minute etc. etc.
