Advice re shower pump

    Hi

    I live in a 3 storey house with a typical Irish plumbing set-up: hot press on the top floor with vented hot water cylinder and cold water tank up in the attic.

    The middle floor has 2 ensuites while the top floor, at the same level of the hot press has the main bathroom. Both ensuites have a shower and both are fed from a pump in the hot press. The hot and cold feeds from that pump do a 180 as they come out of the pump and must obviously run under the floor space on floor 2 and then down the wall space for both ensuites. The hot press does not back onto the bathroom on floor 2 but I'd like to install a power shower in the bathroom.

    So question. Is it possible to connect a pipe run to the existing pump and pump the water up to the attic and back down to the shower in the bathroom? Or how else might I get it sorted - I assume the other option is to have to lift floor boards and run the pipes in the same space as the pipes that drop down to the ensuites?
