Hi All,

Sorry if this has been covered somewhere, but I can't seem to find the answer to what, I'm sure, will be a simple question.

I have a thermostatic shower mixer that I'm going to fit in my bathroom and am planning to plumb it in using copper fixings - don't know why, I just like the idea of doing it 'properly' if you like.

The problem is, the shower valve has female threaded holes for the water inlets & outlets, and I am not sure what I should screw into these? I'm thinking that there must be a 90deg copper fitting that screws into the valve and has maybe a compression fitting on the other end?

Anyone got any links?

Thanks

Thanks for the reply, isn't that link to a 1/2BSP though?
That link certainly is to a 1/2 inch fitting, which would be a standard size for a shower (and plenty of other items).

If this is a problem, what size are the shower inlets?
