Hudson Reed Twin Imperller 1.5 bar Shower Pump PR50D AW301 Where low pressure is a factor or for those who prefer power shower performance it may be necessary to pump a gravity fed system. Do I need a pump? Historically, British water systems are generally connected to a cold water storage tank which is kept in the loft. These are known as gravity fed systems which are low pressure, and rely on the height of the tank to provide the water flow pressure for the house. Due to height restrictions imposed on where the tank can go, low pressure is a resulting factor (can be as low as 0.1 bar). For those who prefer power shower performance, it is necessary to pump a gravity fed system, or install a high pressure boiler or unvented system. NOTE: Only low pressure gravity fed systems can be pumped, check with your installer that the cold water storage tank and hot water cylinder is big enough (the hot water may run out). The standard UK domestic tank is 225 litres, (this should be sufficient) but for larger homes a 450 litre tank is recommended. An 120 litre cylinder for hot water should be sufficient, but a larger home may require an 166 litre cylinder. Pumps must be fitted in accordance with current Water Regulations, and not be connected to the water mains, either directly or indirectly via a mains fed water heater   Where will the pump be fitted? The pumps work by pushing water rather than pulling it, and are situated as close to the water supply as possible. Therefore, they are commonly fitted close to the hot water cylinder in the airing cupboard.   Pump specification: Our pumps are all “Twin Impeller Pumps” which are designed to boost the performance of two water supplies (hot and cold) to a fitting with separate flow controls. Whole house applications, one or two complete bathroom suites or a single mixer valve can have their performance boosted depending on the rating of the pump chosen. Note: Avoid pumping water to traditional WC systems with lever flush operation, as this can reduce the lifespan of the pump. The disadvantages of pumped systems are that there is an element of noise during operation, and also servicing issues need to be considered. However, for many homes that require power showering from a gravity fed system, they are the only solution without having to replace the full hot water system.     Shower Pump 1.5 Bar Pressure Output Of 40 Foot Head 1.5 Bar Rating Flow Rate Of 10-15 Litres Per Minute 2 Year Manufacturer's Warranty Easy Installation    Retail Price: £288.00  Your Price: £186.90   LIMITED OFFER

Showers

We have a large range of shower products to choose from and aim to provide everything you require to complete your bathroom design. We supply shower enclosures, shower trays, shower valves, dream showers as well as a large range of shower accessories. We only use top brands such as Merlyn Shower enclosures and JT Shower Trays.

Choosing from the vast range of showers available can mean considering quite a few criteria. There are all types of showers to choose from including power showers, concealed thermostatic shower mixers, digital showers, to traditional exposed shower valves and modern dream shower panels.

Every bathroom shower mixer should be chosen carefully with the following considerations:

Type of installation: You should consider whether the type of shower you choose will be suitable for your bathroom. For example, a concealed shower valve may need reinforcement in the walls, especially where there is a this stud partition. Extra space may be required for reinforcement.

Water Pressure: Check your water pressure before purchasing your shower as different showers have different recommendations for water pressure and some boiler systems may require a shower pump to aid pressure.

Thermostatic or Manual Shower Valve: Many showers come with an option of either a manual or thermostatic model. A thermostatic one will allow you to set the temperature whilst the water is turned off, and can be kept at this temperature every time you shower. With a manual shower valve you will be required to choose your optimum shower temperature each time you shower.

Shower head design: There are various shower head designs available, from large rain showers which will deliver water like rainfall, to shower roses which have varying delivery of water. Some may settings on them which change the water style. You will also have the choice of a fixed shower head or swivelling shower heads, as well as the more traditional and conventional shower slider rail kit. A fixed shower head can also be used alongside a slider rail kit when using a diverter shower valve.
