Things I never knew I needed until I saw one...
https://www.screwfix.com/p/flexible-cop ... 00mm/61598
The shower pump died, the replacement has differently located connectors and the flexi hoses supplied are nowhere near the pipes.
The actual pipework is 'amusing' - comes in on 22mm Hepworth grey plastic, Compression Hepworth Tee for take off for basin, plastic to compression Hepworth fitting to 22mm copper (or sometimes more Hepworth grey(!?!)), 22mm JG pushfit angle down towards the pump, 22 x 15 JG pushfit straight reducer, then copper to the flexi connector on the pump. Then the same on the way out back to the 22mm Hepworth leading to the shower (including a Tee on the cold which uses the pumped supply to feed the toilet)
Thats about 40 connections in a small space - I really must sort out a photo host
I reckon I can swap most with a reducing elbow and fresh copper to the pump hose, or shorten the 22mm Hepworth, a srtaight 22 x 15 reducer and the lovely looking (but no doubt trickier than they look) flexible copper. Assuming I can pushfit onto the Hepwroth - there are inserts in the end.
