Type of water system in my house

[Kwokalock]

hi.......just moved into a new house and I'm hoping to fit a new power shower to the bathroom. However, I've read that power showers are not suitable for all types of water systems and I'm currently struggling to identify what system I have.

In the airing cupboard, there is an "Accolade" cylinder and it's model no. : A144D

On the cylinder, there is a "Hot supply to taps" label at the top of one of the pipes and there is also a "Cold in from Mains" at the top of another pipe.

Would anyone know what this is and would I be able to fit a power shower to the bathroom? if not, are there any alternatives?

Your help would be appreciated. Thx

wha results did you get from google for an accolade a144d?

I think accolades are thermal stores, which use mains water to the hot taps, so you wouldn't be able to pump it.
