Connecting to a Cold Water Pipe Discussion Thread
Hi
I have just bought a compression tee from Screwfix and need assistance on how to connect it to the existing cold wate rpipe.
Do I simply isolate the water, remove the current tap and replace the new compression tee?
Do I need a specialist tool to remove the exisiting tee?
Do I need to solder the new compression tee onto the cold water pipe, or will the olive be fine?
Does the compression tee have to be horizontal for pressure purposes?
The purpose of the new tee is to connect both a dishwasher and washing machine to one cold water supply.
Thanks in advance.
