  • I had a Megaflo installed when we did our loft. Lots of hot water, lots of pressure, just works. Assumes you have enough mains pressure in the first place though.

  • Mains pressure seems OK. No idea what the actual pressure is, but if the shower ran at the same pressure hot as it does cold, that would be great.

    I'm guessing it would be an indirect one seeing as our current HW is gas? Are they any better/worse than direct?

    Not really sure. I guess mine is both in as much as it is usually heated indirectly by the gas boiler next to it but it has an immersion heater element too so I can have hot water if the boiler is off/broken. Not used the immersion heater yet.

    I upgraded my supply pipe when the Megaflo was fitted. Seemed sensible to ditch the lead and put in MDPE anyway.

  • The difference between direct and indirect is you use a electric immerser to heat it directly or a boiler to heat it indirectly. Yours would be indirect heating it from a boiler, heats the water a lot faster too than using immersers.
