Sounds like your shower is faulty rather than your supply.

dont know what your existing problem is, however in answer to your question, yes you can. you need to work out volume required and frequency of use.

depends what you mean power shower,if it has a shower pump then no.if its a blending vavle then yes,the force at which the water comes out of shower head on blending valve will be less than the elecy shower,i would replace elecy shower

will be worse than electric shower


Your shower going hot and cold, will be shower head scaled..clean,damaged hose..replace or if unit makes boiling sound could be scaled up thus over heating

get repaired or just replace,best option unless you want to run new hot and cold pipework to shower which gives you more options

yes the shower is quite old now so will prob need replacing any way,, ive just always fancied a power shower .
so a power shower needs a proper boiler with hot water tank then ??

my hot water is from an oil fired rayburn which i only use through the winter so not a lot of good in summer ,,
