Hi my Mother wants me to fit her a shower cubicle and new shower, I am ex-building services so qualified for electrics and had some plumbing training.
The problem is she doesn't want to alter much, she more or less wants me to pull the bath out (they have a very small bathroom) as they do not have baths much and fit a cubicle at the end where the bath taps were, but there is a window there, so to me it seems I need a cubicle with at least 3 sides, one to face the window side, one face on which you enter through, and one side which would be adjacent to the sink. Most of the ones I looked at have 2 sides only ie to fit in a corner. Now she has seen one where there were 4 sides, looks like a Doctor Who Tardis to me but she liked it and it is just a stand alone thing.
What are these called I am having trouble finding them on the net?
Also I assume you fit the shower on the back of the cubicle which is like a white panel, is this correct?
She has a combi boiler so I assume the only options are an electric shower (Triton type thing) or a mixer valve fed using the combi boiler water, is that it or is there another option as she complains about the existing 9.5kW shower she has now not having enough pressure?
You can't fit one of these pumps to boost the pressure with a combi can you? How could you boost the pressure, is there a way?
Any help really appreciated.
