Before choosing your showering system be sure to determine the system you have installed in your home so that the system you choose will work to its maximum performance.
Water Pressure
Low Pressure System
If you have a hot water storage cylinder in your airing cupboard and a cold water tank in the loft you will have a low pressure system.
If you run this without a pump you can choose any product displaying this low pressure icon.
Unvented Cylinder
If you have a hot water cylinder in your airing cupboard with an expansion tank and no cold water tank in the loft. You can choose any product with the High Pressure icon.
Shower systems suitable for gravity fed and combi boilers can also be used on a high pressure system.
Combination Boilers
If you have no water storage and a boiler in your kitchen/garage (usual places) you will more thank likely have a combi boiler, which instantly heats mains fed cold water and you will not need a storage tank. Choose any product displaying this icon.
Products suitable for gravity fed and unvented installations may also be used with combi boilers.
Pumped Systems
If you have a cold water tank in the loft and a booster pump fitted to your system, your system will be pumped and you can choose any product displaying the High Pressure icon. Please check the minimum recommended pressure meets your pump requirements.
Products suitable for gravity fed and unvented unstallations may also be used with shower pumps.
