If only I had the space in my airing cupboard!

The outer thread of the bush is 1" - using the female 1" socket will screw onto that and the inner is 3/4" so that will screw onto the top of cylinder. Will wait for it to arrive and see if I got the right item........

Hi, why not...? Is my only option to get another different flange?

[/url] Hi muggles, thanks for letting me know. If only I had planned everything before starting the works!

Hi mate, I bought a 1" X 3/4" Hexagon brass bush: The S Flange came with a female socket in the set. Hopefully I have all the right parts for the job. Have uploaded a couple of photos of the cylinder top so someone can verify it for sure.

Thank you all for your responses. I have double checked and it does look like it is 3/4". I have taken a couple of photos with my phone and uploaded just to get a verification.........

Hi, I am fitting a Salamander CT75 shower pump. I have already created a dedicated cold feed from the attic and was about to get started on the S Flange fitting, when I realised that my hot water cylinder is 3/4" not 1" like the flange. I have been searching on-line for a reducer (?) as the...

I gutted my whole bathroom for a refit and that included removing the rotten floorboards and also adding noggins between the floor joists. I was meant to buy 18mm WBP, hired a van and went down to local Wickes only to find it was not in stock. So in a rush, I decided to go for the 18mm...

Hi, I am currently fitting a new bathroom and am unsure about the installation method for the acoustic ducting. I had no idea that the inner core is perforated, imagine my shock when I noticed the pin holes! What I want to know is where do I clamp with the worm clips? Right now I have only...
