You cannot use existing supplies. All mixer showers to function correctly and safely must have dedicated supplies.

A Surrey or Deleted flange may be necessary when a pumped shower is fitted, but a close connection to the top of the cylinder is often sufficient. Try first, and if air is drawn in, fit a flange.

You will also almost certainly have to increase the size of your header tank to satisfy the increased requirement of water

I wonder why the word Deleted has been deleted from my post as it is the correct term for the part I had in mind.
