Product Information

Full details

The Primaflow Pf Wash Mac Valve Tee is designed for plumbers and DIY enthusiasts seeking a robust and efficient solution for connecting washing machines. Its key benefit is providing a durable, space-saving, and WRAS-approved connection point for dual appliance use. A potential caveat is ensuring correct compression fitting sizes for your specific plumbing setup. This valve tee offers reliable performance through its brass construction and 15mm compression inlets, coupled with a 3/4" CP outlet for standard hose connections.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this valve suitable for hot water connections?

This valve is designed for cold water applications only. Please refer to product specifications for hot water compatible alternatives.

What is WRAS approval?

WRAS approval signifies that the product has been assessed by the Water Regulations Advisory Scheme and meets the highest standards for use in contact with drinking water in the UK.

Can I connect two washing machines to this valve?

The tee is designed to support dual appliance use, meaning it can serve as a connection point for two separate appliances from a single water inlet. However, the flow rate may be divided between the two.

What size pipe do the inlets connect to?

The inlets are 15mm compression fittings, designed to connect to standard 15mm plumbing pipes.

What is the size of the outlet for the appliance hose?

The outlet is a 3/4" CP (Chrome Plated) thread, which is standard for most washing machine and dishwasher hoses.

Do I need special tools to install this?

You will typically need two wrenches to tighten the compression fittings securely. Ensure you have the correct size wrenches for 15mm compression nuts.

Troubleshooting

Leaking at compression fittings

Ensure the pipe is clean and free of burrs. Tighten the compression nut firmly but do not overtighten. If the leak persists, check the integrity of the pipe and the olive, or consider replacing the fitting.

Low water pressure to the appliance

Verify that the main water supply valve is fully open. Check if the appliance's own internal filter is blocked. Ensure the hose is not kinked.

Difficulty attaching the washing machine hose

Confirm you are using a standard 3/4" BSP washing machine hose. Ensure the threads on both the hose and the valve outlet are clean and undamaged.
