3 Urinals on wall

Plumbed to the drains and cistern but no cold water feed yet.

What do you use to plumb a cold feed .

Only a small 5 " hole in the top of the cistern .

No other holes in it for a valve or annything :(

You go to a good plumbing supplier and ask for a pett cock, no not that type but a small adjustable flow restictor on the end of the pipe which sits over the hole in the top of the cistern. the other thing you could fit is a Cisternmiser which will fill when a tap is run off the same supply to the urinal for a set time therefore not wasting water.

Dubya Bush found the gold urinal in the White House. He naturally assumed it had to be for him to use. He did find though that it leaked a bit.

He complained to Mary Bush. Mary was sort of friends with Hillary Clinton, so took the chance to point out that Bill hadn't kept the place maintained properly.

Hillary told Bill she'd found out where he'd left his saxophone.
 
So is Cozzmics anwer correct ?

Can i just take a feed to it and put a ballofix and only open it slightly /?

NO !!
 
Seeing as I have just found the water regs site my latest fave thing to do is to quote em so here goes

(2) No water fitting shall be installed, connected, arranged or used in such a manner that it causes or is likely to cause-



(i) waste,
misuse, undue consumption or contamination of water supplied by a water undertaker; or

(ii) the erroneous measurement of water supplied by a water undertaker.

In other words fit a cisternmiser and pet cock.
If your water is metered it will pay for itself time and time again
 
You should also seek advice from the water Supplier, and Building control.

As with any industrial installation, the Factory Act, Health and safety could all play a part in what you actually fit.

Type of use, size of staff etc. has to be considered
