Re: [OT]Shower Pumps

I've installed lots of Stuart Turners and never had a call back on them.

They are noisy but no worse than other makes. You can put them on
antivibration mounts and use flexible connections but they do still make a
noise.

Personally, I have an ST Monsoon 3 bar twin impellor pump. It works very
well with two showers, although there is a slight but noticible drop in
pressure when the second shower is turned on.

It is important to use a good quality shower in this application otherwise
you may find temperature instability a problem - Expect to pay upwards of
£200 for the shower mixer alone!

As this is rather OT (unless you are going to automate it in some way - and
the inbuilt flow switches dont count!), then probably reply off list if I
can be of any further help.

Regards

Neil

Would make life easier (space+plumbing) if I can replace the existing pump
with something a bit meatier and serve both showers from the 1 pump.
