Indeed , we've got 8 bar here , had to up the soldering on the joints .I have hilarious recollections of staying in a country hotel in Limoges. As is common in France we booked a family room for myself, wife and two daughters. There was an en suite shower behind a heavy curtain and, upon reaching through to turn the device on, the shower head rose up off the wall like a giant cobra and charged through the curtain, spraying water all over the room. The Frogs certainly don`t lack water pressure.
