hot cold pump for bungalow

    Hi all,
    I live in a bungalow and the water pressure is fine on the supply.
    I want to increase the pressure from the hot tank and also from the cold tank. It's mainly just for the shower as the pressure is low. It's a bath/shower mixed at the tap.
    I could possibly get away with putting the pump under the bath and just increase pressure to the bath/shower and then fit a thermostatic shower setup.
    Any thoughts or what type of pump do I need. I'll plumb it myself but the electrical will be complete by a sparks.

    Thanks.

    Still best pump on the market for what you need would be the Stuart Turner 2.0 bar brass bodied positive head pump.
    Solid unit, 5 year warranty if fitted in accordance with the manufacturers instructions, spare parts easy available.
    Cheaper pumps are out there, and you may get years of life out of them, but thats my recommendation.

    A brass positive head unit should be ok, but warranty is shorter. I wouldn't go near their negative head models, I've had too much trouble with them.
