FAQs

Does this kit include everything needed for installation?

The kit includes the wall mount flange and bib tap, but you will need to purchase PTFE tape separately to ensure a watertight seal.

Can this be used with plastic piping?

This kit is specifically designed for 15mm copper pipe systems. Using it with plastic pipe may require additional inserts not provided in this kit.

What size is the tap inlet?

The bib tap features a standard 1/2 inch BSP male inlet.

Is the finish suitable for permanent outdoor use?

Yes, the materials are durable and designed to handle outdoor conditions, though regular cleaning is recommended to maintain the finish.

Is the quick-connect outlet compatible with all standard hose connectors?

The tap features a standard snap-on male outlet compatible with most universal 'click-lock' hose connectors found in garden centers.

Troubleshooting

Water leaking from the compression connection

Ensure the pipe was cut square and the olive is properly seated; tighten the nut an additional quarter turn.

Tap threads leaking at the flange connection

Unscrew the tap and re-apply sufficient layers of PTFE tape to the male threads before reconnecting.

Quick-connect nozzle is difficult to attach

Check the O-ring inside the female hose connector for debris or damage; applying a small amount of silicone grease can assist with smooth operation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Secure compression fitting prevents common plumbing leaks
  • Quick-connect mechanism saves time when swapping garden accessories
  • Standardized 15mm and 1/2 inch sizing ensures broad compatibility
  • Durable construction suitable for outdoor environments

Cons

  • PTFE tape is not included and must be purchased separately
  • Requires basic plumbing skills for a secure installation
  • Bronze finish may weather over time if exposed to harsh chemicals

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires standard plumbing tools, including an adjustable spanner and a pipe cutter.

  1. Ensure the 15mm copper pipe is cut square and free of debris.
  2. Slide the compression nut and olive onto the pipe.
  3. Insert the pipe into the wall flange elbow and tighten the nut securely.
  4. Apply PTFE tape (not included) to the tap threads before screwing the tap into the flange to guarantee a watertight connection.
  5. Mount the flange plate firmly to the wall using appropriate screws for your substrate.

For ongoing maintenance, periodically check the compression nut for tightness. If the tap becomes stiff, verify that no mineral buildup is present in the quick-connect mechanism. If you live in an area prone to freezing temperatures, remember to turn off the water supply and drain the tap to prevent pipe bursts.
