Few questions for you tap gurus out there:
(i) Are all two-hole bath taps standard 180mm apart?
(ii) My existing bath tap mixer (with shower hose) needs replacing and it seems it's only secured using compression joints with the 3/4" hot and cold pipes. Is this normal or should the tap also have been fixed together with the bath using some nut similar to that used on a basin?
(iii) Will it just be the simple case on unscrewing the two nuts to free the tap and screw in the new one? Hoping it won't open up a whole new set of problems.
Thanks in advance for any help.
