Woodchurchzoo Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 We are currently finishing off our last two bedrooms for B&B but cannot decide what kind of showers to fit in the bathrooms.Do we put in electric showers or do we put a storage tank in each bathroom that will heat up overnight?Any advice from people with past experience would be grateful.N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miki Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 LAST EDITED ON 24-Feb-04 AT 11:31 AM (GMT)I would never suggest anyone use electric showers in France. One of the reasons simply being the huge amount of kw power required. Usually a minimum of around 7kw, so times that by 2 and add on your other electrical requirements and you can see just why they are not a big seller (I doubt many french houses even have one?) in France.I would suggest that a 200 litre chauffeau between the 2 rooms would in 99% of cases be quite sufficient. Cost of them these days can be as little as 100 euros on promo. If you are in a known hard water area, then paying more for a steatite type chauffeau would make sense.Putting in good quality glass doors to the shower always pays dividends, as sorry to say it but, other people do not pay quite the same attention to your house as you do.Miki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
