i have an unvented cylinder system
there are 22mm pipes running off this to where the shower will be. unfortunately the shower valve is 15mm, so i will reduce the pipes before they go into the back of the valve.
then i will run a pipe from the shower valve to a tee. from the tee the pipe will split. it will run upwards to a divertor (for a shower and hand held shower). the other pipe off the tee will run towards a stop cock for the 4 body jets.
my queries are:
1. do i use a "manifold" for the 4 body jets? (ie the pipe will run from the stop cock into the manifold and then the water will split between the 4 outlets).
2. the manifold seems to be 22m on the inlet and then 10 mm onto each outlet. will i be able to use another reducer (that is, increaser) to go from 15mm to 22mm, without causing any problems or loss in pressure?
3. can i safely use further reducers to go from 10mm to 15mm between the manifold adn the body jets?
4. can members suggest a better/easier method? or recommend a suitable manifold to do the job?
