I am planning to install a pump which will power two showers. The most convenient place to site the pump is in the airing cupboard.
We already have a power supply in the airing cupboard to run the immersion heater.
The immersion heater power supply is a switched, fused (13 amp) unit with a flex outlet. It seems to be part of a ring (there are two cables entering it) - probably the socket ring main, but I have not checked that.
The instructions with the pump say the pump must be connected to a 230 volt 50Hz supply with a switched spur fused at 5 amps.
Can I just run a spur from the immersion heater supply point and stick a 5 amp switched spur on the end of it?
Are there any other (better) options?
