Techflow Pumps

[ranjitnarula]

I have a shower system which requires a balanced water supply. I believe I have one since I have Megaflow installed and a plumber has confirmed that the system is balanced

The pressure of the water in the shower is very low and I need to boost it. Need to check the following:

1. Can I install a techflow pump to my system ie just before the pipes feed the shower mixer valve?
2. If I install a techflow pump which has a facility to boost the pressure of hot and cold water, will the pump ensure the water is balanced? I plan installing the pump on the hot and cold inlets to the mixer

Can someone help please?

Many thanks in advance

a megaflo is a pressurised unvented system that works directly off the mains. Your not allowed to pump the main. There are pumping products available but they usually involve the use of a break tank are generally fitted at point of entry to property. An accumulator might be an option, but I would get someone in to find out why your megaflo is not peforming, could just be a blocked filter.
