Default cutting pipes for shower - no space

Yes you can. When it is in the pipe, it is pressurised. It takes a finite
time for it to evaporate when it emerges into atmospheric pressure.

But the issue here is one of using a hot water TANK on UNPRESSURISED hot
water supply from a CISTERN type header tank.

As usual we have weaseling from those who realise what asses they are
making of themselves.
