Radiator valve to plastic pipe
Does anyone know where to get these:
https://flic.kr/p/g37Rh6 It's an Altech TRV (easy bit) with a 15mm to 10mm (I think) plastic pipe elbow (difficult bit). The elbow directs the pipe behind the radiator, which is what I'm after. (I did ask about this about a year ago, and I'm not sure anyone knew. I'm now finally getting round to fitting the rads). -- Cheers, Rob |

I think I was one of those who responded last time and it was a simple matter of googling 15/10mm rad tail elbow/adaptor and examples popped out. Soooo, get googlin . . . . Btw, don't think the plas part is an issue, you can either buy elbows with one side pushfit or fit the plas into a chrome compression elbow adaptor. -- fred it's a ba-na-na . . . . |

Despite a slightly misleading picture, I believe that a Pegler 7P1010 is the same beast and slightly cheaper here if you have a few to do: http://www.mytub.co.uk/15x10mm-push-...product-331671 I believe this may also be the same part as Pegler don't list an equal 10mm pushfit elbow: http://www.screwfix.com/p/pegler-pus...bow-10mm/28509 Might be worth a visual check if you have a screwfix nearby -- fred it's a ba-na-na . . . . |

Worked a treat, and looks really good. Thanks for your help. -- Cheers, Rob |
