handyman the jobs I get asked to do can be varied and wide ranging as you can imagine, and sometimes the job throws up curve balls and presents you with something unexpected. I give you the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grohe.co.uk\/en_gb\/eurostyle-cosmopolitan-basin-mixer-1-2-s-size-2338720E.html\">Hansgrohe 50 focus tap<\/a>. Now on the surface this may look just like an ordinary basin mixer tap, but when you take a closer inspection you\u2019ll notice the flexible tap tails that are supplied look a little different. That\u2019s because UK pipe sizes as some of you may or may not know are typically \u00bd\u201d feeding a bathroom basin tap; but this tap has a \u215c\u201d connection typically used on the continent. \u201cHow\u2019s that going to work?\u201d I hear you cry! Well it just so happens there are \u00bd\u201d to \u215c\u201d compression to male BSP adapters available to reduce the 15mm pipe connection down to fit the hoses, they are available from all good plumbers merchants, and worth stocking a few pairs just in case this problem pops up. Next time you visit your plumbers\u2019 merchants ask about these fittings.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-1{width:50% !important;margin-top :
