About this deal

not when in a confined space or when the fittings end up situated side by side as when connecting to monobloc tails. If anyone's had a similar problem perhaps you could advise? Am I on the right lines... or getting a bit carried away? I don't want to fit the new tap only to find the flow is still poor. I'd also like to exhaust all other options before fitting a pump on the whole hot water system.

There are no obvious restrictions being caused by the connecting pipework. I don't need to get it anything like mains pressure, but just enough improvement to avoid having to fit a pump. As it is now, I just measured a measly 1.71 l/m. The minimum pressure tap I have been able to find is 0.1 bar. It has M10 connections and the flexi tails included - but they look like they will still be restricting flow somewhat as the aperture of the tails is pretty small especially at the compression nut end. So I have been considering using some copper tap tails instead. I have also been searching for a monobloc mixer tap which has larger M12 connections for the best chance of maximising flow, however, I've not been able to find any... in fact you practically never ever see thread size included in specs!! Copper tails, which are narrower where they go through the tail, increasing to 15 mm at the pipework connection end. Less restrictive than flexis, but no as good as 15 mm pipes. Finding a tap set genuinely capable of operating at very low pressure is your only hope without installing a pump. Stig, the copper tails that come with the monobloc taps are usually ribbed to allow easy bending by hand, which allows you to bend them into a position where the couplers are far enough apart, to tighten without a problem.The Intatherm safe touch thermostatic basin mixer tap, designed for both domestic and commercial applications. A new stylish design featuring Inta’s proven anti scald technology a safe touch body and a self draining spout. My reason is that it makes replacement very easy and it is a more reliable method of connecting the tails than compression. When tightening compression it is all too easy to loosen the tail and cause a leak. These threaded bars should be fitted before dropping the tap through the hole in the basin. Only do them up as tight as you can by hand. If you use pliers or grips there is a danger you will damage the thread. If you're charging by the hour Seriously, installing sinks that are so thin they can't take a normal monobloc The larger two of these holes are for the feed pipes to be screwed in and the smaller two are where the threaded connection bars are screwed into.

It is slid over the thread and the other end twisted tight by putting a nail or something similar into the hole and turning. Easy! Ceramic insert (1/4 turn) taps have two ceramic discs inside, each with two diametrically opposed slots. The faces of the discs are grounds extremely flat so that they form a water tight seal. The slots each occupy just under 1/4 of the diameter of each disc, a little way in from the outside. When closed, the slots in the upper disc are covered by the unslotted portion of the lower disc, and no water flows. When open the slots of the upper and lower discs are in alignment, so water can flow through. However, the area through which the water can flow is much less than that offered by a traditional tap washer being raised off its flat seating, so flow rate is less.The condemnation and imposition of sanctions on Russia and Belarus in response to Russia’s military invasion of Ukraine will have enormous implications and an impact on global trade, particularly on commodities, for years to come. The effect of the war on the building material supply in the UK is still to be determined. However, the region including Russia, Ukraine and Belarus accounted for only 1.25% of building products imported into the UK last year.
