Hi All
Anyone know if you can get flexible hoses like this:

but in 28mm style (compression fittings and corresponding hose diameter)?

I have a job to replace our cold water tank in the loft and there is an awkward
connection; something like this but in 28mm would be a big help. I haven't
been able to find any in BES etc.

Thanks for any pointers

Surely better to alter the plumbing on the €śhouse side€ť to make it an easy
connection?

Ideally yes, but that is also not easy... There are two pipes going into a tee
about a foot away from the tank, and the third leg of the tee goes via a short
length of 28mm (I think) with a single shallow bend, into the tank.

It is all done at angles and having to raise the level of the new (plastic)
tank with a sheet of 18mm play will make it worse.

I might post a photo...
