Power Showers

[jem1]

Hi,
my husband wants to get a power shower for our new bathroom, however i am aware that you have to have a certain type of water tank etc for this - can someone explain in more detail what is needed for us to have this kind of shower, and how i go about finding out if i have the correct water tank/ heater!

thanks

Most of what you need to know is here: -

Sometimes instant electric showers are referred to as 'Power Showers' - this is covered in the above reference too (click on the page reference to them). Post again if you need more info.

most people in the area I work only go for the power showers because the water pressure is to low for the ordinary type, the power ones can be very expensive,so if the pressure is ok, why go for the power shower?
