Hey all

Just discovered whoever fitted the shower taps in our corniche didn't bother to connect them.

So i'm left with a red & blue pipe 1/2 inch dia with no connections to attach them to the taps.

Does anybody know if these pipe connections are sold separately?

I've seen them on other taps. red & blue coloured, go from about 9mm for the hole in the base of the taps with a slight angle, to a 1/2 inch connector for the pipe.

They must be sold seperatly......as caravan wokshops replace taps. I'd try a plumbers merchants first, not a DIY superstore

Go to www.leisureshopdirect.com and have a look through their Taps (under Water) they do a number of different connectors for taps

I would go to a caravan dealers rather than a plumbers merchant/DIY store,plumbing fittings in caravans are different in size to domestic plumbing fittings.Take a sample of pipe with you if possible as well as anything you need to connect to.There are a large range of fitting available.
