Su.J explains how to use single and double impeller shower pump or as per your requirements and get the desired pressure of water in your bathroom shower.
The purpose of using shower pumps is to get the shower at the desired pressure at any altitude to experience faster cleansing. The desired pressure is achieved through interfacing the shower with a pump operated by a machine. This enables you to get the desired pressure even if you reside at the topmost floor of a building.
So as far as shower pumps are concerned there are of two types. The first one is the single impeller shower pump which has a single driving blade pumping the water to the shower head, while the water is being mixed in it. This implies that it is going between the head and the mixer valve. So it is very clear that installing the single impeller shower pump in the loft is the easiest place as it enables it to be always above the mixer valve. However, this leads to a problem when in the loft the water freezes in the cold temperatures preventing it from being insulated due to lack of free air flow. To tackle this problem a twin impeller shower pump was introduced. This is made connected to both cold and hot water before reaching the mixer valve so that they can be ideally sited in the airing cupboard.
