Ok you're sick fed up with you're old bathroom taps and fancy something new,or possibly your old taps have started leaking.Here is a fast guide on how to replace them
If replacing the existing taps it will be necessary to switch the water off.Newer homes will have a valve fitted [url=http://www.tileproject.net]barbour outlet[/url] on the pipe under the wash hand basin [url=http://www.lotogame.fr/louboutin-pas-cher/]louboutin pas cher[/url] whereby you simply turn 90 degrees with a flathead screw driver.Pre 2000 homes will require the water feed to your home to be turned off.If you use a combi boiler your hot water feed [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/Barbour-Paris.php]barbour france paris[/url] may have a seperate water isolation valve you need to turn off.The guide provided with the boiler should show you how to do this.Next put the taps on to remove any built upwater,although some may have a little left when they are removed.
Use a sink spanner ,crowsfoot spanner, adjustable spanner or a tap tool to undo the nut, which is used to connect the supply pipes to the taps. Some water will come from the pipes, so have a sponge,rag at hand for this. When the supply feed pipes have been removed use the same spanner to loosen the nut that is fixing the taps onto the bath/sink - the single taps will have to be stopped from turning during this stage of the [url=http://www.davidhabchy.com]barbour outlet[/url] process,it can be done [url=http://www.par5club.com/louboutin.php]louboutin pas cher[/url] on your own [url=http://www.davidhabchy.com]barbour sale[/url] but a helper makes the job at this stage. Once the taps have been removed the holes in the [url=http://www.golfwithashotgun.co.uk]barbour by mail[/url] basin or bath need throroughly cleaned in preparation for the new taps.
Before fitting the new taps, compare the pipe [url=http://www.ttcarpets.co.uk]mulberry outlet[/url] connections on the old taps to the new taps. If the old taps have a longer shank(the threaded pipe that fits through the hole to connect to the feed pipe then a shank adapter is required so the new taps will fit. This can be bought from ost diy stores and plumbing stores.
If the tails of the new taps are plastic then a plastic connector [url=http://www.mquin.com/pjsdoudoune.php]parajumpers pas cher[/url] is required to prevent damage to the thread; one [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/airjordan.php]nike air jordan pas cher[/url] end of the connector fits on the plastic tail of the tap and the other end provides a connection to the existing supply pipes.If a monobloc is to be fitted then reducing couplers may be required. The reducing coupler allows the 10mm pipe of the monobloc to connect to the standard 15mm supply pipe.
Now to fit Your new taps, position the tap in the mounting hole in the bath/sink ensuring that the washers are in place on top between the tap and the sink(important!) The next step is to fix the tap in place with the backnut [url=http://www.golfwithashotgun.co.uk]barbour outlet[/url] provided. When the tap is securely in place the [url=http://www.orlando-apts.com/cheapnfljerseys/]cheap nfl jerseys[/url] feed pipes can be connected to the tails of the new taps.
The taps can either be connected with normal tap connectors or by using corrugated copper piping. The corrugated piping has the advantage that it can be bent to compensate for misalignment of the supply pipes to the taps. The corrugated pipes have a tap fitting at one end and compression fitting at the other. The corrugated pipes should be fitted to the tap ends first, tightening only by hand. The supply pipes can then be connected to the other end. Once they have [url=http://www.sandvikfw.net/shopuk.php]hollister sale[/url] been connected both ends can be tightened with a spanner.
When you've completed this process for each tap the water supply [url=http://www.reedlawky.com/hollisterde.php]hollister online shop[/url] can be turned back on. Any new pipework should be checked for leaks. If any leaks occur they can mostly be stopped by simply tightening joins otherwise the system [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/airjordan.php]jordan pas cher[/url] will have to be drained again and a closer and more thorough investigation should occur to find the source of the leak.Most water leaks are a case of simply tightening so there shouldn't be anthing you cannot deal with yourself.Enjoy using your new taps.
