Already got one shower a long way from the tanks with a mira mode digital shower. Its the dogs nuts.
I'm starting to talk myself into getting another one for the bathroom next door to the cylinder and almost underneath the cold tank. Reason is I think while £500 is a lot of money, most of that will go back on the house and we're not sure what we're doing - we might well stay and it comes with a "bath filler" which looks very good especially for families with young kids or forgetful parents....
Anyway, my questions are:
1/ Planning on putting the mixer/pump into the loft above the bath/shower. I'm assuming I can tee off the existing dedicated 22mm feeds for the other mira shower which is also in the loft because its unlikely both showers would be run together and if it becomes a problem I could plumb it direct from the tanks after installation. I guess if they did run together they'd get starved of water and drastically reduce flow but is that the only issue?
2/ The bath outlet feed from the mira mixer/pump could come out in 15mm but it would be going down almost the full length of the room before reaching the bath. Could/should I upgrade that to run in mostly 22mm so the bath fills at least as quick as before or would it not make much difference?
Thanks a lot for reading and any constructive advice.
