Hi All,
I was round a mates yesterday and standing in his lounge was a fairly tall water cylinder thing that allowed 'mains pressure' showers etc?
It was made by Santon and a quick nose around their site makes me think it was the 'PremierPlus' model.
So, is it just the (ss?) cylinder inside is up to the mains pressure but outside that it works just like a traditional indirect copper cylinder?
He was talking of having one of those big showerheads and the need not to have pumps etc but I wondered if there could actually be a 'flow' issue? I understand the pressure could be good but some older houses can have fairly (flow) restricted mains feeds (blocked pipes etc), often masked with a tank fed systen apart from when using the hosepipe etc?
And I assume like with all 'direct' devices you get pressure drops when other folk use the loo / run a bath etc (but I guess at least hot and cold would drop at the same rate)? (and of couse with a mains fail you have no water) ;-(
All the best ..
