can anyone please advise I've upgrade to a twin head shower and now the flow rate is terrible, it feeds off a mixer tap on the bath. Ive been looking at pumps, would it be possible to fit a pump under the bath and run it off the existing 22mm pipe work?
Hi It's a shame that customers are sold showers that require very good flow rates, but are not advised of this. But, many diyers don't know about flow rate required for different outlets. Or how to check this... Or kw. required for delta T say 35? And 12 lt/min? Oh well.. If flow no good, stick a pump in! ( it may cavitate if you do it wrong) Regards Grumpy old plumber... Peter
May be, may be not. Do these 22mm pipes feed anything else? If so, the you risk pulling in air unless you also fit one way valves.
What system have you got? im guessing gravity? No you can't just pump it I'm affaid, it will suck air in, won't work etc unless fitted correctly,
