Looking to update my bathroom but worried about the possibility of air locks. I am looking for the old fashioned push on washing machine pipes that used to go on your taps so that I can blow the air lock out from cold water through to hot water taps. So far I have not been able to find anything like these anymore. Any advise on where I can buy or how to adapt would be appreciated.Thank you...wet wet wet

if your going on to the washing machine valves just use the washing machine hose, will do the job no problem.

2 of them connected to a short piece of hosepipe will do the trick! also come in handy if you want a hosepipe outide a house and no outside tap for something , cutting tiles or mixing cement or something ......... as you do :p !!
