  • Do folks have normal shower in lofts or power shower electric things? Don’t like the later.
    Combi boiler fwiw.

  • We're fitting a normal shower, but have a pressurised system.

  • A combi is a sealed system too so you’ll get the same pressure everywhere. Power showers are for ye olde colde water tank in the loft systems.

  • I had normal shower and combi boiler. Decent pressure but you couldn't really run that and the main bathroom shower at the same time.

  • People round us have electric showers in the loft because there's not enough water pressure, but they're shit and are currently a very expensive way to have a shower with the cost of electric.

    A combi on its own is unlikely to give you good enough pressure, but you can add a tank to a combi system and if that doesn't work add a pump. Basically what @Howard said, that's what we had at our old place and I reckon it'll work.

    But talk to a good plumber, they can measure your pressure (but we both know it will be crap at the top of the house) and advise on the best solution.
