Hi

I'm watching the discussion on which method is best. One question regarding this. I can get round the back but with the thread on the Outlet being only 15mm it is not long enough to go through the Tile and wooden board wall which is about 10mm. No thread comes through to screw the Tap connector onto.

Regards

Paul

not being a fan of tap connectors on showers anyway, due to them using a fibre washer.

So screw the Tap connector onto the shower Outlet first. Then put then drill a hole in the Tile ans wall big enough for the tap connector to go through ???

Sorry my spelling was ridiculous in that last post.
OK I can picture what is happening now. What secures the Tap connector and feed pipe to the Tap connector. So the Tap connector doesn't come back through the hole. Bearing in mind I have used Flexipipe
