    Outside tap kit

    It’s just when you’re putting the hose back and water can get back into the mains system. That’s why most taps have a check valve installed to prevent this. Never know what sort of contamination you can get from water left in a hose pipe

    Outside tap kit

    Yeah it’s mandatory so I’d purchase a double check valve tap just to be safe. Thanks for the help Geoff

    Outside tap kit

    Yeah the parts separately are probably a bit cheaper. But the top one is only £18.60 so it’s quite convenient for me. Would you say the flexi hose hole is big enough to get a good flow rate of water?

    Outside tap kit

    Hi all  just seen this on eBay for less than £20. Just wondering what the water flow will be like? Flexi pipe in the 10th pic doesn’t look like much water would flow through but thought I’d ask before purchasing. ...

    Ok thanks for all your help. How much would a plumber roughly charge? Including all the bits and labour ?

    Installing outside tap

    Right ok. What would happen if I connected a hose to it and put to an ouside tap? Could you recommend a good tap kit? Something that’s got a self cutting tool? I’ve heard some people say the water onky trickles out of them. I want to connect my jet wash to the outside tap

    Installing outside tap

    Hi looking at installing an outside tap. I’ve got a drain cock already installed so could I connect that to the outside tap? If so what pipe would I need connecting the drain cock to the copper pipe which connects to the outside tap? Any help would be great !
