We have finally got round to using a long bit of waste pipe for serviced pitches, and quite keen to have a go at the fresh water ones. I might sound a bit dim, but how does this connect to the outside tap? The adapter kits ive been looking at come with different size threads, but I dont recall seeing threaded taps on serviced pitches before. How do you get it to stay on if not threaded?

Thanks :)

There are kits of fittings for the various tap/thread sizes available on-line and quite cheaply, often the activating ballcock valve will come with them. The water pressure (especially in France)has a tendency blow the push-on type off too easily so a threaded one is best.

Every serviced pitch we have been on has a threaded tap.

The usual UK outside tap thread is 3/4 BSP (British standard pipe thread) some I've seen in Spain are 1/2 inch BSP
