Replacing kitchen tap

sam78759 · 23 Jul 2021

I'm looking to replace our kitchen tap with a new mono mixer tap with flexi tap connectors.

Our existing piping looks different to ones in videos online - can anyone explain which existing bits I need to remove and whether I'll need to get any additional connectors/etc to fit the new tap?

E.g. do I remove just the copper pipes? Will I then need some sort of connector to screw in the new flexi hoses?

Any pictures of the ends of the flexis? They aren't all the same.

Thanks for your reply. I haven't bought the new tap yet - is there a particular type of flexi end which is easier to install or more durable?

Not really, just need to know which it is to advise properly.

Think you’ll need to trim copper coming out of the hep2o and get flexi’s with compression ends.
