Hi - have an outbuilding going up in my garden, after some deliberation with how to get hot water etc it now has it's own dedicated electric circuit to avoid any issues with overloading the current ring.... so I thought my issues were resolved and I could just get an instant hot water boiler to service the shower and 2 basins (not at the same time) ...however I just seem to have landed myself in another minefield of problems!! From what I am reading now an instant water heater cannot be used in conjunciton with a thermostatic shower... (and you try finding me a non-thermostatic one! )
Everything is now set up - plumbing in place shower bought, taps installed etc... just waiting on the boiler now!!
So can I please get help on my options.....
A) the ideal for me is that I CAN still go with an instant boiler.... is there any that anyone can recommend which WILL work as intended?? or has anyone had any success with them? I don't understand how they can be advertised as being used with a shower if they can't!! ?
B) 2nd best I can see so as not to waste all the work that has gone into everything so far is to get a hot water storage tank... not ideal as it will be wall mounted so can't be massive, plus I Was hoping for instant hot water out there as I don't have it in the house and would be useful to have, plus for the occasional use in the outbuilding don't want to be heating water when it's not in use.
c) i suppose I could get an electric shower and a small instant heater for the taps? This is a pain as it means swapping the shower which it may be too late to return, also means big holes in my freshly fitted cladding and means diverting the wiring (which is already all in place)
Is there a D ??????????????
Many thanks for any help/advice.
