Hi folks,
I have a couple of Aqualisa Opto digital showers in the house that have always been pretty lame when compared to power showers that I've encountered in hotels.
They are both concealed with the digital units in the loft, the house system is mains pressure cold into a megaflow for the hot, so both of these units aren't pumped.
I also checked that they were not set to ECO mode but they aren't.
Having looked at all the power showers out there they all seem to be only suitable for gravity fed systems.
Is there any way for me to boost the pressure out of these showers or are there better showers for my home setup that will provide power shower performance?
Best regards
zippy

Start by using a measuring jug to measure the amount of water (in litres per minute) being delivered by your showers.

Prepare to be disappointed, big hotels often have high-capacity plumbing that you can't easily emulate in a domestic context. This is especially the case if you comply with current water and energy conservation standards, which are a bit on the mean side.
