Showergy 2.0 Pump Design Details

Hey once again, I'll let the pictures speak for themselves, to describe the design of the pump.

Fig.1.1. Showergy 2.o Pump Design



Fig.1.2. Showergy Prototype pump constructed

Here's the prototype we constructed. We've managed to make it (almost) air-tight and water-tight and currently the pressure that the Bee Brand pump seems to pump is 45 PSI or 3-4 kg/m2. We're really looking to see how the design can be improved to maximize this pressure - it seems like we need a lot more pressure for the showerhead to function at its optimum. We'd welcome any and all suggestions for the same! Thanks guys.

Keep tuned,
Jess

Is it possible to take a video of the pump in action? It looks pretty sturdy from the picture, so that's good ... from the post, it didn't seem like these materials were too difficult to find.
