Is it working fine just now or is the pressure pish?
If it’s working fine don’t bother spending money on something you don’t need to. Shower usually run in 15 btw

Nothing to do with the pressure, it's a very long and convoluted story that I can't be bothered to go in to (see homeowners thread if you're really interested). It's getting replaced, just wonder if 'upgrading' to 22mm would be worth the extra by relieving the small annoyance of my shower running slow when my other half runs the kitchen tap. The boiler would be the first thing coming off the run, but there will probably be the low denominator of the 15mm x 1m section up to it (and, yes, on to other taps/showers).

Related to the above post, I need to replace a counter end slab with a wall bracket to make space for the new pipe run. Will a few bits of 2x2 jammed in be enough to support the to while I get a bracket on or should I invest in a small acrow prop?
Also worth getting the plumber to use 22mm? I'm assuming this might help the drop in pressure from the combi boiler to the shower when taps are run, but my knowledge of plumbing is limited at best. There would still be a length of 15mm from the main up to the boiler unless I replace that, which would probably be a massive hassle.
