I have bought a rinse mixer kitchen tap but don't know how to fit the tap as it has three supply pipes to it, a hot and cold feed and a cold feed to the rinse. How do you attach all three to two pipes?

It does have instructions but nothing at all on how to fit the three pipes to your hot and cold feed pipes. I'm thinking maybe there is a connector you can buy but no idea what it is.

You need to tee off the cold water pipe for the spray arm which is usually done as cold, so you have three feeds, hot and cold to mixer deck and cold to pre-rince.
