new shower installation

[b21playa]

Hi all

need some advice. doing up the bathroom and need to install a cubicle, ive got about 760mm width and seen a tray that is 1200mm x 750mm. I know its close to the window but is that ok?

secondly, what type of shower should i install, at first i thought an electric one, but i want one that has a good pressure. I dont have a hot water cylinder or a cold water tank so will come striahgt off the combi boiler

Thanks

If you have a combi boiler, you can just use a mixer shower because the pressure required is supplied by mains.

will this be better then an electric shower?

as has been said it depends, what comi have you got? (and post the power eg 24kw, 32 kw). some struggle some are more than adiquate. same with electric. electric costs more to run, but still works whilst your waiting for the plumber to fix the combi.

need to put a new combi in as well

how does a power shower work as ive heard a bit about them

not with a combi ...they are pumped from a hot/ cold water storage cistern/cylinder...usually
