I bought some from PTS they were cheaper but not of the same quality as Gardiners , didnt last as long and not so easy to turn either

moral is pay a bit more and get the better kit for the job

Ronnie,

If you mean the actually tap has come off just pop off the yellow cap with a screw driver, screw it back on and pop the yellow cap back on (this stops the little grub screw going walkabouts).

Dont worry I replaced 3 of them before I realised thats all I had to do

Regards

Al

Are you referring to this type of valve?



We can supply the central valve body (complete with handle) without the parts on either side, they are only about £3 I think.

Would this be of interest?

I will have to check up, but as far as I remember the valve body is cheaper to buy than the EZ-Snap part. Did the valve break in normal use or had it been dropped/crushed/kicked/stomped on/driven over by a bus, etc?

Hi Alex,

The order you shipped to me before you went on holiday was suppose to have had one of those taps included, but it had the brass piece and the tap was the push fit type so could you send me a tap aswell please.

Thanks Arthur

Got the bits Alex, don't worry about the return. Charge me for the extra fittings.
