I don't suppose you'll get figures, as they'd depend a lot on the pressure of the supplies you're connecting.
There aren't many venturi-type showers about, and the TB is probably the best. New Team do one, which will be cheaper.
Expect to have to move the pipes, nothing's ever the same...

Alternative would be to use the cold tank the HW is fed from for the cold side so the pressures are balanced, then pump them both, which would give you more pressure/flow. Check tanks are big enough if going that way.

Actually I am replacing a croydex venturi-an older one-I turned the dial, it made a noise and now no water is coming out. I did want a straight swap really-any ideas? All I found is the H20 croydex but I dont know if I can attach the two two brass exposed pipes coming down from the ceiling.

We used to sell the Croydex H20 showers in our shop and we got no end returned faulty. Not had a single problem with Trevis or New Team.

Hi, can you tell me the part that breaks as I have same problem as most where the hot is continously running out now and would like to repair it so not to have to rip out tiles and pipework etc, is there a large washer/diaphram etc that could be made ?

On the left is hot intake the right is the cold water intake and shut off and the middle has a plunger type device that i presume does the mixing of the hot/cold is it here thats gone or the plunger type device on the right ? sorry for descriptions not being good but people who know these showers hopefully will understand, if not i can take some photo's at the weekend.
Best regards
Adam
