    In a house with granny extension. We currently have 2 electric showers on a non priority board. Would like to add a third shower and plumber told me water pressure is too low to add a power shower as water tAnk is only about 6ft above ground floor. Can I add a third electric shower on a 3 shower non priority board. Anyone got any experience

    2 would need a priority board. You've been lucky

    You can't run two together safely let alone three.

    Plumber is wrong. With a negative head pump you definitely can have a power shower even if tank is below the shower.

    This makes no sense, why would you need a priority board?

    Not planning on running 2 together at anytime. Would prefer a power shower but was told it wouldn't work but I will check it out with other plumber.

    Exactly.
    This solution will also provide a far superior shower. An instantaneous type eclectic shower with a tank that low will be problematic.
