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 "house side" 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...

Perhaps you could put the tee in a different place or at a different
angle to give more room for the connecting pipe?
