Hi, thanks for the reply. Hot is from a combi.

Hi, did this work in the end? Also, does the brass block on yours also have no back nuts for clamping to the wall? I have two plates for screwing to some sort of mount but that doesn't seem very robust to me

HI, I have two wall mounted taps (http://www.qssupplies.co.uk/bathroom-furniture-shower-taps/2952.htm) that will be connecting to an overflow bath filler similar to this one (http://www.qssupplies.co.uk/bathroom-furniture-shower-taps/77555.htm) It has a single inlet which means...

Alcplumbing, many thanks for your reply. You mention a concealed valve on your first post, can you send me a link to one please so that i can be sure to get the right part. I probably wasn't clear but it won't be alongside taps it will be with deck valves, as if I was installing a 3 hole...
