Is a Combiboiler downstairs shower upstairs OK ?

[richardrich79]

We plan on fitting 2 showers 1 electric and one running from the combi boiler.
I was going to fit the electric downstairs and the one from the existing hot water supply upstairs.
Looking at the shower we've got from Victoria Plumb it says that if using gravity fed (which we're not) it'll need a 5 metre drop, it then goes on to say that Gas Combi System or pumped systems are OK.
This shower will be on the first floor practically above the Ideal combi 35 gas boiler, will it be OK or should I put electric upstairs and hot water system downstairs?
It's just a normal bar type shower.
Thanks in advance.

Being mains pressure upstairs or down will make little odds. The mains flow rate and ability of your shower/boiler to heat the water are the factors you need to consider. Providing your incomming flow rate is sufficient you should get an ok shower.
