CalvinHobbes Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 So went to see a self build on Sunday, they had 2 labradors and had opted to put in a hot tap outside to wash them. Plumber who installed it said he didn't know why more people didn't do it? Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conor Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 (edited) Yeah, I've put one alongside a cold feed in our back yard where there will be an outdoor sink. No need to bring muddy shoes or boots in to the house. Edited February 14, 2023 by Conor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andehh Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Yep we have a few going in around the property. Washing cars, washing very dirty hands, filling paddling pools, etc etc.... Its a simple but great addition. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnMo Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 My wife asked me to install a hot outside tap the other day. Added it to the other jobs on the list - another hole to put in to my wall 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blooda Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 We had one installed when we built. To date its main use has been to pre-heat the hose pipe to give flexibility before unravelling, and subsequently before winding up. And to heat the Air intake pipe on the Insignia in minus 3 so I could change the MAF Sensor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenni Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 It's on my list of things to fit. Quite a few ways to go about it. I'm going for an internal thermostatic mixer valve, so single warm tap on outside wall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
