don't want to insult your plumbing knowledge rocket but if you don't know this it can catch you out, if you're using a trap with a diswasher adaptor onthe sink trap, when you empty the sink, the waste from the sink will go into the dishwasher unless you loop the waste from the dishwasher higher that the sink, Attachment Deleted |

Thx Tom.
There's a vertical in situ where the wm goes into & it's got another pipe for the dishwasher do quite lucky. I've just got to get the cold to it, no problems.
Thx again though.

If it makes life easier for you rocky you can use one of these on the WM feed to give you your supply for the dishwasher. Attachment Deleted |

That's what we've got PB, I checked to make sure after looking at Toms drawing, it's also got a little box with wires in what's that for

Lovely. That'll save me putting a new cold feed in. All I need to do is cut the old stop tap out & renew then as its seized & wont budge.
Cheers PB

Sorry PB, that fits on the end of a 3/4" male thread? Just screws on?

I see you can get this in brass also. Are they better than the plastic for longevity?
