Hello,

we have recently installed a new Matki shower, as well as an Albion Ultrasteel cylinder, which I assume (excuse my ignorance) is the same as a Megaflo..
The water pressure in our shower is lousy, and I am being told this is due to small pipes in house / Matki shower internal pipes / low water pressure in the area.
We never had issues with this , and the pressure in water taps seems fine...is there anything we can do, can this be in install mistake , ie use of too small pipes from cylinder to shower (which are directly connected by new pipes..)
Thanks for any ideas /suggestions you might have
Kath

Hi if it just the shower. It may be filters blocked or alike.
 
from a mega flow you should have a good shower

mains preesure is usually 1 bar minimum

try taking the handset off and checling

Piping should be 15mm for a shower
