Change for Tank Fed to Mains shower

    I am currently refurbishing ensuite which previously had T90z installed (noisy!!!)

    I have been testing out my mains pressure recently and I uncertain if a mains shower would work. Generally the pressure at the stopcock has been between 2.2Bar or more often 2.5Bar to 2.7Bar.

    With kitchen tap on full this generally drops by 1 Bar, so 1.2Bar to 1.5Bar.


    I was thinking of trying a mains fed to see if it would work.

    Triton Aspirante 8.5Kw

    https://www.amazon.co.uk/Triton-Aspirante-Electric-Showerhead-ASP08BRSTL/dp/B004UKJO9Y/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1474400203&sr=8-7&keywords=aspirante

    Looks much better than the irish white tritons and would run much quieter.

    I have checked out the new Trition T90 SR and it is pretty impressive in terms of noise, but the design is essentially the same white shower as usual.

    There is a Satin Chrome one for 130 Euro extra!


    In the event that there was not sufficient pressure could someone recommend a small pump to be located next to the cold water tank, that would supply the required pressure?
