FAQs

What tools do I need to install these valves?

You will need a pipe cutter, and potentially a pipe chamfering tool. No soldering tools are required due to the pushfit design.

Can I use these valves with plastic pipes?

Yes, these valves are generally compatible with plastic pipes. Always check the pipe manufacturer's specifications for compatibility.

How do I remove the valve if I need to?

There is a special release tool available for pushfit connections. Alternatively, carefully twist and pull the pipe out of the valve.

What is the lifespan of these valves?

With proper installation and care, these brass valves can last for many years.

What if the valve leaks after a few months?

Check the pipe connection for a secure fit. If necessary, replace the valve.

Troubleshooting

Valve leaks after installation.

Ensure the pipe is fully inserted into the pushfit connection. Check for any damage to the pipe or valve. Tighten the pushfit connection, and if the leak persists, replace the valve.

Difficulty inserting the pipe into the pushfit connector.

Make sure the pipe end is clean and free of burrs. Use a pipe chamfering tool to slightly bevel the edge of the pipe for easier insertion. Ensure that you are using the correct size pipe.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy and quick installation due to pushfit design.
  • Reduces the pipe size, ensuring compatibility.
  • Durable brass construction for longevity.
  • Straight stem design allows for efficient and neat connections.
  • Comes in a pack of two, offering value and spares.

Cons

  • Requires careful alignment and insertion to ensure a secure seal.
  • May not be compatible with all radiator valve designs or pipe materials.
  • The pushfit mechanism can be less familiar to those used to traditional compression fittings.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Cut the existing 15mm pipe cleanly using a pipe cutter.
  2. Ensure the pipe end is free from burrs and debris.
  3. Insert the 15mm pipe into the pushfit end of the reducing valve, ensuring it goes in fully.
  4. Connect the 10mm valve to the radiator.
  5. Tighten the valve.

Compatibility

These valves are designed for use with 15mm pipes and 10mm radiator valves. Check the compatibility of the pipe material (e.g., copper, plastic) with the valve before installation. The speed fit design is compatible with many standard pipe types, but always check manufacturer's specifications.

Care

  • Regularly inspect the connections for any signs of leaks.
  • If a leak is detected, tighten the pushfit connection, or replace the valve.
  • Avoid excessive force when tightening the valve to prevent damage.
