Hi chaps,

Once again I find my self here asking for your expert knowledge :)

I am replacing the sink tap and thought it would be a fairly easy task and hopefully a like for like swap but unfortunately not!

The two pipes that feed the taps at the last stage have a different sized thread :( which means I'm not sure what the best way is to connect to the existing pipe work is, it maybe just a case of buying a kit at B+Q I guess but I thought I'd run it past you first.

Thanks in advance.







 
Where the brass connects into the flexys, undo there, buy 2 15mm iso valves, they should screw right onto the iso (check the rubber washer is in there).

Screw the new tails into the tap and fit it to the basin, then connect the other end of the iso's to the copper tails.

If you don't have enough length you may need to extend the tails.
