Hot water in the shed - long term project.
I have a mains feed to the shed protected by a 40A RCBO.
So full chat at 220 * 40 = 8.8 kW. Or pushing it, 250 * 40 = 10 kW. I also have mains water and main drainage. Looking at electric showers, I guess I could run something like https://www.screwfix.com/p/triton-en...nual-electric- shower/52753 if I didn't have anything else major running apart from a light or two. I was considering a hot water tank and an immersion heater for more total heat over a slower period but that seems to run to over £200 for a basic set up. For hand washing there are what look like shower units without the shower which makes me wonder if there is a way to divert the shower to the hand basin and use the same unit. However this seems to get good ratings https://www.screwfix.com/p/redring-m...-stored-water- heater-1-5kw-6ltr/5314p and also looks to be an easy install. At the price it seems to be easier than messing about with a shower. Any other strategies? Basic requirements for the shed will be toilet, shower and hand basin (or possibly larger sink for washing stuff).
