The AP Supplies Three Way Tap Splitter is an ideal solution for homeowners and professional gardeners who need to manage multiple irrigation lines from a single 3/4 inch BSP outdoor tap. Its primary benefit is the ability to independently control water flow to three separate hoses, streamlining tasks like lawn watering, patio cleaning, and vehicle washing simultaneously. While highly durable, users should note that it requires a standard 3/4 inch BSP threaded tap and is optimized specifically for Geka type quick-connect couplings, which may necessitate an adapter if you currently use standard snap-on plastic connectors.

Yes, it is designed for a standard 3/4 inch BSP threaded garden tap.
No, this unit is specifically designed for Geka type quick-connectors. You would need a Geka-to-standard-hose adapter to use plastic snap-on fittings.
The unit is made of high-quality brass with a nickel finish; it is intended for irrigation and outdoor use, not for potable water drinking systems.
While the nickel plating is corrosion-resistant, it is best practice to remove and drain the unit during periods of freezing temperatures.
Running all three hoses at maximum capacity may cause a pressure drop depending on your main water line's flow capacity, but the independent valves allow you to balance the flow as needed.
Ensure the rubber washer is inside the splitter inlet and that it is tightened securely against the tap threads.
Check the Geka fitting for debris or dirt and ensure you are using a compatible Geka-style coupling on your hose.
Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the valve stem to ensure smooth operation.
To install, ensure your main outdoor tap is turned off. Screw the 3/4 inch BSP female inlet of the splitter onto your tap, ensuring the internal washer is seated correctly to prevent drips. Once hand-tightened, attach your hoses equipped with Geka-type connectors to the three outlets by pushing them into the fitting and rotating to lock.
For care, periodically wipe the nickel-plated body with a damp cloth to remove grit or debris. During winter months in freezing climates, it is recommended to disconnect the splitter from the tap and drain any residual water to prevent internal expansion damage, even though the brass construction is highly weather-resistant.
