The other possible solution would be to fit cold water storage cisterns, from there you could use a couple of decent single impeller negative head pumps to pump from the cold water tank. One pump could supply the cylinder and the other could supply all non-potable outlets, something like the Salamander RP80(or 120) SU's.

We also have an accumulator offering, called AccuBoost, but this won't be available until around September.

If you need any further advice, please feel free to give us a call on 01915162002

If you fit for example a 300L accumulator and pump you could probably expect to get 200L out. How long it will boost and how long to refill will depend on your water supply.

Say you have 10L/m from mains and want to boost to 15L/m the tank could supply for 40 mins constantly (200L / 5L/m). The tank would then have the full mains (10L/m) recharging the system so should be replenished in 20mins.

In a more normal example a person having a 10min shower, the system will most likely have refilled by the time they’ve dried/dressed.
