Hi all,
As part of a house renovation I'm putting in a combi and a thermostatic shower in the bathroom. Now the shower I've bought (ToolStation £69 job, forget the make) gives the pressure range as 0.3 to 3bar and I suspect the water main pressure is higher. Short of getting a different shower (why people won't list the max pressure of these things) can I just fit a pressure reducing valve (eg
Also, do reducing valves affect the flow badly? I'm vaguely considering fitting one at home as I'm about the 2nd house off the main feed and get a viscious flow rate and ~10bar which makes me eternally wonder that the plumbing isn't blown apart.
Ta, Scott
