Could someone please help as i am in the throws of finishing my en suite and have hit a problem.
I purchased a Surrey flange a couple of months ago as i knew i would need one for my power shower installation. All pipework to and from my HW storage tank is 22mm so i assumed i had the correct flange. Today i decided to fit it and quickly realised the 1" male bsp thread was no way going to fit the outlet at the top of my tank. The outlet i have is 3/4".
I dont know why i have to have a non standard size... nothing seems to go to plan.
I have posted a picture here:

I have found other Surrey flanges online with a 3/4 male tank connector but these only have 1/2" outlets to the system.
Would it be possible to use pipe adapters to size back up to the 22mm existing pipework, or will this cause a problem with bottlenecks etc? I could really do without shelling out over £200 on a new cylinder right now.
Advice much appreciated.
