Product Information

Full details

The Siroflex Universal Rubber Kitchen Tap Connector is designed for UK homeowners who lack an outside tap but need a convenient way to connect a garden hose to their kitchen sink. Its primary benefit is enabling hose connectivity directly from a kitchen mixer tap, offering a simple, tool-free setup. A potential caveat is its specific compatibility with UK swan neck mixer taps measuring 22-24mm. This product provides a secure, leak-free connection, transforming most standard kitchen taps into a functional water source for gardening, car washing, or filling large containers.

Troubleshooting

Connector won't fit on the tap.

Verify that your tap is a swan neck style and measures between 22-24mm. Ensure the tap spout is clean and free of obstructions. Try wiggling the connector gently as you push it on.

Leaking connection at the tap.

Ensure the connector is fully seated on the tap spout. Check the rubber seal inside the connector for damage or debris and clean it if necessary. Re-attach firmly.

Water pressure seems low.

Check that the kitchen tap is fully open. Ensure the hose itself is not kinked or blocked. The flow rate is dependent on your home's water pressure.

Connector is difficult to remove.

Gently twist and pull the connector while ensuring the tap is off. If it's stuck due to residue, a gentle rinse might help dislodge it.
