I have bought a 3 port compact manifold, which can be seen here:
http://www.alternativeheat.co.uk/products/underfloor-heating/manifolds/compact-manifolds/index.php
The manifold itself is for 16mm pipe, however our floor was laid with 15mm pipe. The supplier suggested I replace the valves, there exact wording was:
"Screw the existing valves and associated tails out of the manifold and insert ½” male iron to copper straights which will enable you to connect the 15mm pipe directly into the manifold".
I'm not sure which of the items I need from ScrewFix. And would appreciate it someone could just give me the direct Screwfix links, or part number.
Notice the nut is already fixed to the manifold port, which has a curved convexed connector with seal.
I need two connectors, one straight, one L shaped. They don't need to have valves as I already have those on the feed and return pipes. Below shows pictures of the two items I need to replace. Notice that while they are male connectors, they have a curved concave inner. The connectors I'm finding either have the nuts fixed on them, or the male part has no inner concave curve to allow it to seal.
Thanks
Mark
