[QUOTE="NozSpark, post: 190755, member: 601"] I did a shower pump with a plumber friend,, first off he fitted it in the loft, header tank was similar to yours... there was not enough head for the pump to switch on so he had to move it to the floor of the floor below, even then you had to open the valve in a very quick motion for it to work. Other pumps that I have been a part to installing have never run off a surrey flange or their own cold feed from the tank and have worked perfectly, they have however all had at least 8' of head... IMHO I think the loop of pipework is a pointless waste (I stand to be corrected though) [/QUOTE]
