Recently moved house and found out that the downstairs shower room (there is a family bathroom upstairs) only has a 15L electric water heater to supply it. This only gives hot water for about 3mins max, which is not great. It is a type that looks more suitable for a sink.
I think there are 4 options (other than quick showers):
1)Plumb in shower to mains water systems (combo boiler) - concern here is whether the boiler could cope, plus would prefer an alternative system in case of boiler problems etc.
2) Get an electric shower installed, might not be too difficult but extra pipework/electrics and replacing tiles etc Plus would need hot water for the sink somehow.
3) Look to replace the water heater (that is in the eaves above the shower room) with some kind of 'on demand' water heater, using the existing plumbing and electrics where possible. In my mind this might be the easiest but I am struggling to find a suitable unit, or find any info on if such things exist.
4)Replace the 15L unit with a much bigger one, I'm guessing at least 50L
Any thought or ideas welcome - obviously will be seeking out 'professional' advice as well.
