Thanks. The size I need will be either 1 1/2" (38mm) or 1 3/8" (35mm).

Hello, Can the brass adapter shown in below photo still be purchased? If so, what is the part called or what is its British Standard number? I have searched online but nothing came up. Thanks in advance.

Thank you. By the way, why are hoppers no longer legal?

I don't like the idea of connecting wastes (wash basin and bath) to a soil sack pipe because I imagine sewer smell could come into the building. A separate 50mm stack sounds good. Should a trap be installed at the base of this 50mm stack? Thanks.

OK, good to know. Thanks.

I'm with bernardgreen on this. I don't like the thought of having a pressurised system in my house. What if the relief valve gets stuck? I also prefer gentle hot-water flow to the basins and bath. However, I'm not sure about a plate heat exchanger with a traditional cylinder as I think it was...
