    Drain Identification/Problem?

    can't I just use my hands like others have said? 17quids fairly expensive for something I'd use once and then it'd take up room?

    Having a problem installing shower diverter (leaking!)

    Seems to have worked on the hot still a slow drip on the cold, maybe I've just not been using enough PTFE this whole time? Will see how it goes once its redone and left overnight. At least I've replaced the flexis now though. Thanks for everyone's help

    Having a problem installing shower diverter (leaking!)

    its definitely from both 3/4 ends. I'll remove the PTFE from the 15mm (I only put it there as once this is in access isn't gonna be easy) and rewrap the 3/4 this evening and get back how that goes. How thick should I be doing the ends roughly? Thanks so much for any help or assistance. Wish I...

    Still no luck. I'm going mad. So I've put a 3/4inch to 15mm coupler in both now with PTFE and they're still dripping. What am I doing wrong?!? Does anyone know where I can get any information on these diverters

    Hence me asking what the right stuff is? I've found some 3/4" x 15mm couplers. Hopefully thatll do the trick with some PTFE in the 3/4 end and rigid plumbing for the rest.

    So I think what I'll do is remove the existing plumbing including the nipples as I don't think they're sitting right. Get two 22mm straight couplers and remove the but and olive off one end, screw it into the diverter with PTFE, then run connect some 22mm piping and then two 22mm to 15mm...

    Having a problem installing shower diverter (leaking!)

    Currently I've only got a 22mm nipple into the diverter And then the flexihose is 15mm to 3/4. So I guess I'll have to replace the flexihose with 15mm rigid and then do I find a 15mm to 3/4 piece and attach that to the nipple. Or is there something to put the 15mm pipe directly into the female...

    Actually how do I even put rigid 22mm into a female inlet?

    Having a problem installing shower diverter (leaking!)

    it is mains yes. So you recommend getting a 15mm to 22mm reducer for both, but use it the other way round and then attatch it into the diverter. How do I go about actually attaching the 22mm pipe to the diverter do I just need to get a nut and olive? If so that's pretty straightforward.
