Hi all,
Complete novice, muddling through a bit of plumbing.
We need to rearrange the plumbing for a new sink, washing machine and dishwasher.
There are 2 strap on boss' (one original. And one that my dad and I switched for a new one a few months back when it started leaking, I can't get him down to help anymore so I need to work this one out on my own!!) .
The bottom strap (bottom blue circle) says 40mm on but I can't fit a 40mm pipe in to it? There is a black seal inside. Should I remove that? Or is it just a 32mm strap and the 40mm is the size of the boss the pipe goes in to?
The alternative would be to plumb everything out of the top one, but I think it may be too high? The sink (black line) will finish 9.5cm above the top of the pipe going in to the strap boss (top blue circle). Would that give enough of a drop once we have added a trap etc (yellow line)?
I want to avoid drilling another hole and adding another boss if possible as there is minimal room to fit the straps round the back, and I'm not going to lie, the though of it scares me a little.
Any thoughts or ideas really appreciated.
Thanks,
Ruth
