Russdl Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 (edited) 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.

ProDave Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 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.

I am not sure it will work with what looks like a plastic push fit system? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russdl Posted February 24, 2022 Author Share Posted February 24, 2022 @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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProDave Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 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 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russdl Posted February 24, 2022 Author Share Posted February 24, 2022 @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. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe90 Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Not everyone agrees but compression fittings on plastic are used by some (me) make sure you use an insert. https://www.screwfix.com/p/compression-washing-machine-valve-tee-15mm-x-15mm-x/60723 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markc Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 I’ve never had a problem with comps on Plastic (Hep20 preferred) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Seems well covered but I've done a few recently. 15mm tee. Short length of copper pipe and one of these valves. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
