Will a pump work with my Fenton home's system?

If you have a gravity-fed cylinder and a cold tank, yes. On combis you don't need a pump — mains pressure is already positive. We check at Fenton survey.

What bar pump for a rainfall head?

2.0-3.0 bar twin-impeller for a 250-300mm head, positive-head only. Anything smaller under-serves the fixture on a Fenton install.

Are pumped showers noisy?

Old ones can be. Current-gen quiet pumps sit around 47dB; we mount them on rubber anti-vibration feet and rigid-connect only where necessary on Fenton jobs.

Do you cover the pump warranty?

Yes — we register the pump on the manufacturer portal at handover of every Fenton install, so the warranty runs from your commissioning date.

Are you fully insured for work in Fenton?

Yes — we hold full public liability cover and every job in Fenton comes with a written workmanship guarantee.

Do you tidy up at the end of each day?

Yes — dust sheets stay down, the room is hoovered daily and we leave your Fenton home liveable while the work runs.

A pumped shower makes sense in any Fenton home still running gravity-fed hot water — typically pre-1990s builds with a header tank in the loft. The trick is sizing the pump against the fixture, not just picking a bar rating off a box.

We measure available head at survey, spec twin-impeller pumps against the exact head and outlet count, and locate the pump on anti-vibration mounts so the whole airing cupboard doesn't hum every time somebody showers.

Most of our bathroom fitting jobs in Fenton begin with a slow walk round the house, not a quote on the doorstep.
