Pumped shower valves

Good morning all

So been asked to install 2 power showers at a property recently... The property has a combi boiler which is only about 3 years old which customer doesn't want to change.... The only option I can see is an unvented cylinder and header tank. Can anyone else see any other options.

Thanks in advance
 
As Shaun has said what's the issue here lack of hot supply and pressure ? If so then possibly a unvented cylinder for the hot and balanced cold supply to each shower mixer you will need 20 + litres a minute at 3 bar pressure on your incoming supply minimum for a satisfactory result and will require altering quite a bit of pipework? .

No fault. Customer wants a powerful shower which won't happen with a combi boiler. Don't think they've got the incoming mains pressure to cope with a powerful shower and taps, washing machine etc being run at the same time
