Hi,
I've done a little research on the different types of shower, but I just want to have a second opinion.
The water in my house is heated by an electric immersion heater in an airing cupboard on the 1st floor. (The central heating appears to be an entirely separate thing and is heated by a gas boiler in the back 'yard').
The bathroom is also on the 1st floor and only has a bath with two separate taps, onto which the current 'shower' (i.e. the cheap rubber hose on the taps) is attached. The water pressure is extremely low and it can barely be called a shower...
Thus, is my best option to get a power shower? My understanding is that this is simply a shower with built-in pump that will take its water from the hot water tank.
What other options are there? I see you can buy separate pumps, and from what I can tell, these would be installed in the airing cupboard or loft. Would you then just use a therostatic mixer shower?
Thanks for any advice.
