I’m converting my garage and looking at heating/plumbing options.

At the moment I’m leaning towards electric heaters (maybe underfloor).

For the kitchen/bathroom sink water maybe an undersink water electric heater and for the shower a mains fed electric shower.

Apart from the cost issue with electric over gas what issue can you see with this setup and what would be a better alternative?

The only issue I can see is my water pressure isnt great and I do like a power shower over standard electric so thinking of a pressurised cylinder to boost it.

thanks
 
No real need for an electric shower. The under sink water heater can feed a normal shower.
 
I guess so but a power shower will swallow 12-14 litres per minute let’s say 8 of that hot water, would need a large tank I guess.
