10mm Push Fit Valves

[nedflounders]

Hi all,

I have 2 towel rail heaters for my bathrooms to be fitted.
However with the inlet to the rads being 1/2" bsp it causes
a problem.
This is because my house is quite new and the heating
system is in 10mm plastic pipe/fittings.
The pipe comes out of the wall instead of the floor.
Where would I be able to buy adapters and inline valves to get
over this.
Thanks,

Graeme.

so how does it cause a problem, use a standard angled rad valve for 10mm pipe or 15mm with 10mm reducer.

Would these seal well on plastic or are they best for copper pipe?

You could use one of these to reduce from 15mm valve and then the 10mm can be inserted to reduced end.

yes they seal on plastic pipe providing you use plastic pipe inserts.

combination off these two would be the uglyest chrome towel rail i've ever seen.

Agree with you there, thats why we never use carp plasic pipe work.

Where is the easiest place to get these?
Obviously I don't have an account anywhere or I wouldn't
be asking these type of questions.

Thanks,

How would you reduce from a shiny chrome 15mm fitting to a 10mm plastic pipe and make it look neat.

a chrome 90 m/i might work.

 

[nedflounders]

I would like to do the job the neatest way possible.

Can you post a photo of existing pipes.
