HOW TO:

Fit Pipe Reducers

Almost all standard radiator and towel rail valves in the UK are designed to fit 15mm pipework.  If your pipework is narrower, you can use a cost effective pipe reducer to fit 8mm or 10mm pipework.  Here's how to fit them to your valves:

STEP 1

Remove the compression nut and olive from the valve

STEP 2

Place the compression nut and olive onto the pipe reducer

STEP 3

Insert pipe reducer into the valve

STEP 4

Tighten the compression nut onto the valve, ensuring the pipe reducer is fully inserted as shown
