    Hi, i'm thinking of installing machine at the other side of a partition wall where there's an electric shower located. I would like to know would it be possible to tap the shower supply for the supply to the washing machine?

    Thanks,
    TJ

    Possible, but a very bad idea.

    You won't be able to have a shower when the washing machine is on because the water will be cutting in and out and going hot and cold.

    We have a shower upstairs too so not really a problem. I was hoping this would work as it would require the least amount of plumbing.

    If the feed for the shower is directly from the attic you may not have enough pressure to feed the machine anyway.
    As already said above, can be done, but very very bad idea.
