Bathroom Low Pressure? Answer

anyone done up a bathroom on equal low pressure (rural gravity here) and put mixer/hower in and gone WOW this is awesome,, getting soo much conflicting advice from tap places.

You're pretty limited when it comes to equal low pressure - a Topliss mixer is probably the simplest answer. Any other sort of mixer would need a pump to boost the pressure.

No.
Working yes. Awesome? You could use a booster pump.

The water pressure here is so high that I had problems with all taps and hoses. So I put a pressure reduction valve in the pipe from the road. So I have equal low pressure! It all works fine.
I got a mixer for $3 at a school fair. I have no idea what type of mixer it is but I made it work.

I agree with Post #3, pressure pumps are quite cheap now and just think how awesome your shower is going to be.
Very few mods to do as well.

being equal pressure it probably won't be to bad. its generally unequal pressure is where the showers tend to be crappy.

Unequal pressure showers work fine with Methven Fastflow mixers.
