Plumbing a washing machine.

[Russdl]

Why can’t I find what I need to plumb the washing machine into this existing hep pipe? There must be something at Screwies but I can’t find it! 

 

Could some kind soul point me in the right direction. 
 

TIA.

I am not familliar with which pipe system that is, but you will want to tee into that pipe then something like this https://www.screwfix.com/p/jg-speedfit-15aptp-washing-machine-tap-15mm-x/18908

 

Ovbiously the one that matches the pipe system you have there.

That's for copper. I am not sure it will work with what looks like a plastic push fit system?

@Onoff @ProDave thanks both.

I think that @Onoff’s suggestion is closer to the mark as I need to ‘T’ off the existing Hep2o pipe. 

[ProDave]

Okay if it's HEP2O then it's this one https://www.screwfix.com/p/hep2o-hx38-15ws-hot-cold-appliance-valve-15mm/6737f

With a tee and a short bit of pipe.

 

One of the proper plumbers will have to come and say if that thread cutting clamp on one would work with HEP2O

@ProDave I found a Hep ‘T’ on Screwfix in the end and went for that. Couldn’t find one on my first search (hopeless). All sorted now, thanks for the assistance. ?

How about a link to the product or future reference.

Not everyone agrees but compression fittings on plastic are used by some (me) make sure you use an insert.

I’ve never had a problem with comps on Plastic (Hep20 preferred)

Seems well covered but I've done a few recently.

 

15mm tee. Short length of copper pipe and one of these valves.

Good point. 

 

I used one of these Hep2o equal ‘T’s a and a short bit of copper pipe.
