I've got to go and look at a salon of some sort that needs hot water to a sink. The guy is very vague - it's his daughter's shop.

From what I have been able to piece together she's either a hairdresser or beautician. Just one sink in the shop, and another in the kitchen area. No gas, so it's got to be electric. I've not seen the place so don't know if there's space for a direct unvented cylinder or the ability to run PRV/discharge pipework.

So, just to have so information ready - what do you all recommend if cylinder is not possible? Or if she just needs a few litres at a time, a few times a day?

Sparkie is coming after to sort out electrics, so will run the appropriate cable, etc.

Thanks in advance..
 
I'd look at an electric shower in the salon sink and a small under sink/over sink in the kitchen area. The hairdresser I go to has got little showers specifically designed for use in hairdressers over the sinks.

Mike do you know the make of these special showers by any chance please?
 
Two small sinks in one shop won't need unvented cylinder, simply not worth the expense
Depending on layout/distance between the sinks either a multi point feeding both or two single under sink heaters
