Hello everyone :)

I'm hoping someone can offer some advice...

The hot water pressure to my shower and bath is very low. I have an open system and the shower is fed from the HWC. I am considering installing a Grundfos UPA 15-90 home booster pump. Has anyone used one of these successfully? Is this the right way forward or does anyone have any other ideas?

Appreciate any suggestions...
 
that will provide a solution and if you fit it to the instructions you will have many years of happy showering

Just make sure that you have the required head of pressure to fit the pump for it to kick in

IF you dont is an expensive Negative head jobby
 
yeah salamander are good too.

not sure of prices but have fitted a few. make sure you follow instructions as you can invalidate warrenty as my boss found a couple of years or so ago, running 15mm pipe into it instead of 22mm, bear in mind the fittings are 15mm on the pump easy when you follow the guidlines though - just incase you just jump in.
