Yes just got them today

Thanks all, useful advice for next time

Managed to do it in the end with these but took some force and time! I was trying for ages before I posted this but terry gave me some new energy.

It has siezed. I screwed it in (tightly) today and cant unscrew it.

I have tried everything to get this out...pliers, grips, spanners, hammer. Any ideas?

Do I need to use washers with the dog legs or just PTFE tape?

I am trying to install the dog legs so that the tap will be right in the middle of the sink but when I tighten them they always finish to the right as the image above. Do you know how I can get them to finish in a different position once tightened?

How can I tell if these cracks in my bedroom lime plaster walls are anything to worry about? I did cut a hole in one to check the stud which seemed fine.

Thanks, will try to mount them better.

I am installing a wall mounted tap and the mounts have compression fittings. Are these okay in this hidden position? Any chance of bursting? Cant find other types of joints on the market at first glance.

So what is the adapter for then?

I purchased this washing machine inlet and waste hose extension kit from amazon and I cannot get the waste extension to seal: 2.5M Dishwasher Fill Water & Waste Drain Hose Extension Kit https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01NA8CBNB/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_1dBJIn8TnsLBj A lot of the waste just leaks...

So it’s no harm to have one in all cases?

I have seen two types of washing machine valves, with and without check valves. What is the purpise of the check valve? https://www.bes.co.uk/washing-machine-tap-with-check-valve-15mm-x-3-4in-10334

That was how the person who did it previously laid it out , but it makes sense. Yes I’m planning to add a tee and use a shorter flexi tap so that should solve the kink. Thanks again.

Okay so ive gone back to copper, grying to copy the cold pipe. Will I definitely need to secure it to the wall or cabinet?

lol, yes the back copper pipework needs securing as was renovating

Thanks The Novice
