I am sorry you did not see the email response to your message, showing you the parcel had arrived on the 3rd day (3/4/25) and was or is behind the plant pot in your porch. Please contact me if you can not find it.
“Parts arrived on time but to my dismay it’s the wrong part for our silent inlet valve. All sites say the part is correct but it’s too large. The first one I ordered was tapered and still leaks. The original has a red nipple in the centre .
Apart from the wrong part service was good”
Hi John, I have looked into this. You ordered Bellows that are for the Syphon, these will not work for the inlet.
Please contact me and I can show you the right part you need.
“Bought supposedly oversize 22mm Brass Olives to use on 3/4" copper pipe with modern 22mm fitting (New Gate Valve) But found the ID of the oversize olives supplied virtually identical to the normal 22mm copper olives supplied in the fitting. Supposedly oversize olive had OD of 0.5 greater than copper/original ones.
Being brass they need a lot more force to compress. However they cannot form a seal to the pipes the ID being at least 1mm too great.
Smaller ID is needed to fit to a 3/4" pipe. but with same OD as 22mm olive. V disappointedm, now have no hot water. Now need other solution. I expected to receive olives with 19.5mm ID and OD for 22mm”
HI Richard,
We sell a few hundred 3/4 olives that go into a 22mm compression fitting. These are for imperial copper pipe but will not fit 3/4" 20th as you need a different fitting for this type. if you need any advice, please contact me and I can sort this out for you.
Regards
Dave
