No — power showers can only be installed on a conventional gravity-fed plumbing system comprising a cold water storage cistern and a hot water cylinder.
This is because power showers use a pump, and according to Water Regulations Advisory Scheme (WRAS) guidance, mains water cannot be pumped. Not following this guidance can result in a substantial fine.
A manual shower doesn’t compensate for changes in the incoming supply of water pressure—for example, when other people or appliances in the home are using water—and the shower temperature may change as a result.
A thermostatic shower gives you greater temperature control—which means it’s ideal for people who are more at risk, such as the very young or elderly.
