Hello All
I stupidly bought a Bristam Wall mount 11 (large letterbox cut out and plastic section with 15mm compression fittings), but didn't know that it is only compatible with Bristam bar showers. I bought a Mira APT ERD a while ago so can't take it back...
So the wall mount is fitted to the wall and the tails are too short to fit the mixer without leaking. Also the rigid riser won't be parallel to the wall... It's about 15mm shorter.
I've bought a tap extension from B N Q https://www.diy.com/departments/flomasta-straight-tap-connector-x-l-32mm/5059340111643_BQ.prd which is about 3 mm too long, but that'll be OK.
2 questions please!
1. How do I seal the tap extension to the tail from the wall mount (there doesn't see to be any 'land' inside to put a rubber washer?
2. On the opposite end (the face which mates with the mixer bar) is quite narrow. Will it seal on the rubber washer/filter or just give me problems?
Really appreciate your wisdom. Thank you!
