T M Hughes i can highly recommend for your electrical work. I had no idea who to ask to sort out the failed ceiling light in our bathroom. Impressed by the reviews & their website, i phoned & spoke to Andy. He arranged for Paul to be at my home the next day. Paul arrived next day. He fitted new lights to the bathroom & toilet ceiling in one hour. All work nicely carried out, no problem. A few weeks later, Andy & Paul arrived to fit a new PIR light to the side wall of our house. Again, a lovely professional job done in an hour. I supplied all the lights, i just required professionals to fit them safely for me. Very pleased to have found T M Hughes. I will use them for all my electrical work in future. Prices are fair, the work done to a very high standard. Thank you Andy & Paul.

For those with low mains water pressure, a Shower Pump is an effective, low-cost solution that will take your low-pressure water and redistribute it at high pressure to your shower and taps.

We fit all types of shower pump which there are several variations. The type of shower pump you need will depend on your existing system and water pressure. Our plumbers will determine the best pump for your current system and home.

Universal Or Standard Pump?

Standard Pumps

Standard Pumps are used in positive head situations with gravity fed open vented systems.

Universal Pumps

Universal pumps can be used in both positive and negative head situations, and unlike standard pumps, they don’t require gravity.

Impellor Single or Double?

Shower pumps are available with single or double impellors

Single impellers power hot or cold water only
Double impellors power both hot and cold water

Positive or Negative Head?

The type of head you require will depend on the set up of your system.

If you have a gravity-fed system, then a Positive head pump will be required. The pump is fitted below the water tank.

When the fitting of a Positive Head Pump is not possible, a negative head pump will be used, which is fitted inline or above the water tank and pulls water (instead of being fed) from the supply, delivered to the shower.

Pump Pressure

Pumps are rated between 0.5 and 4 bar, the pressure you require will depend on your existing system and the number of bathrooms you want to supply

0.5 – 1.5 bar pumps will provide a low boost to your existing mains pressure
1.5 – 3.0 bar pumps are used for single showers and bathrooms
2.0 – 4.5 bar pumps are used for two showers and bathrooms
