TrevorP Junior Member Offline Ask The Trades Posts: 93 Total Thanks: 0 For This Post: 0	Cold supply from tank Jan 3^rd, 2018, 3:46pm We are planning to put a mixer/shower tap on our bath, for guests to use as shower from time to time. We already have a separate cold supply off tank to a separate shower. My question is, is it ok to tee into the separate shower supply for the cold feed to bath mixer tap, or do I need to take another supply from tank purly for the bath mixer?

They ideally want their own supply so there isn't a risk of them sucking in air when you open a tap
