Hi All,
I hope someone can help me, I'm part way through a bathroom refurb, got the floor up and the pipework is a mess - a real spiderweb of tangled pipes. TWO central heating pumps, TWO three-port valves. (One set has been electrically isolated and the valve manually opened, so they are just part of the pipework. Anyway I can simplify it all, and probably improve water pressure/flow rate, but the rising main is a type of pipe I've never seen before. Thick walled copper, slightly bigger than 1/2", and it has threads cut into it, like iron barrel! What I need to know, urgently, is how to connect this size of pipe to 15mm. Neither end-feed nor compression fit on, and there is no space around the pipe to get a file in.
Any ideas, please? This is going to be a mare otherwise!
Thanks in advance!
