Default shower installation questions

Hello,
I have some questions regarding installing a shower.

The place is a ground floor flat, it has a water cyclinder in the
cupboard but from what I see there is no seperate 'cold water header
tank' like you normally have in the loft, does this mean there is a
water buffer in the cylinder? i cant understand how/where the water is
stored.

My other question is i need to install a shower in the bathroom as the
pressure in the hot tap is not enough as i tried a combination cold/hot
tap but the hot water just dribbles out of the hot tap.

I gather that an electric shower can run off mains cold water, but a
shower pump (which has both hot and cold feeds) which you locate
elsewhere the pressure must be the same going into it, so therefore
this may not be suitable to install as there is no header tank?

Does anyone have any suggestions or a good website that explains all
this? thx.
