Hi again

I'm putting plumbing it for a power shower (again!).

As I can't get easy access to the floorboards I'm thinking of just laying 
the pipes from the airing cupboard into bath panel space (which is just 
behind the airing cupboard) hook up to the pump and then on to the shower 
cubicle in the next room but parallel to the bath.

The pipes would run along the the top of the floorboards (out of sight 
though as they'll be in the bath panel void).

Is this acceptable?
As the pump is in the beneath the bath in the void area, is it ok to run the 
electric back to the airing cupboard to be connected up (by a pro sparky, 
I'm well aware of Part P)?
I spoke to salamander and turner pumps companies and they both say 22mm must 
be used as inlets for a power shower, would plastic pipe and push fits be ok 
for ?  I know that I can't use plastic push fits near the Sussex flange due 
to the heat.

Thanks for all your help.... again!

I use plastic push fit pipes for my power shower, and I run them over the
top too

The only problem I had was the water running back to the tank after
showering, but a non-return valve cured that
