Hi guys, just a quicky. No real excuse but I was rushed and drilled the shower pump feed into the same side as the water inlet.
Now as I've not done this before, do you guys think there will any issue with air?

Thanks guys
 
Presumably it enters the cold water storage cistern low down and below the level of the cold water feed to the hot water cylinder. Provided its low down air shouldn't be a problem. Water with any entrained air enters above and any air bubbles should be out before the water reaches anywhere near the base of the cistern.
