do you really want to pump 20k into a jacksšŸ§. Itā€™s just for washin n sh*tin 

Be hard to justify spending that much on a room that you're going to destroy on a Sunday after a feed of pints and a take away the night before.

Screwfix have a few different types on their website but not the exact same as that one in the link


I have used the shower centre on the Malahide Road near fairview a good few times for jobs and have found them good to deal with. If they didn't have the part they would usually tell me somewhere that might have it.

I have old fridge for my keg in the bar.

The range on thermostat is a little low for my liking.

Is it possible to install a new one with a different temperature range?

Walls aren't hollow like that. It's too simplistic. 

I had to do this some time ago and it was a cumbersome task.
It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

Dont talk to me about f**king toilets, the pipe got a clog the other day out at the shore and had everything backing up from the jax, washing machine, dishwasher, sink and showers. The absolute f**king stench of it, was out prodding it with hangers and hoses in the baltic cold in just a t-shirt for half an hour trying to get the thing moving along while also bursting for a sh*te. In the end I just had to raw dog it, cocktail of sh*te up to me shoulders, face millimeters from the surface retching the whole time as I scoped it into a bucket. No idea how anyone could do that for a living. Got it sorted though and had both one of best sh*tes and showers in my life afterwards.

Yeah Iā€™ve had the same. Pipes backed up on downstairs jax. Borrowed rods from work for the manhole outside and have become an expert at it. Nasty focking job but good feeling when you release the block and it all flows away.
