Bächlein Universal Double Outlet Tap for the Garden [Blue] incl. 2 Hose Connections - Noble Double Water Tap with 1/2 and 3/4 Inch Connection, Double Ball Outlet Valve

Really nicely made tap, and fitted/lined up without issue. Would have been great if it had been supplied with the requisite fitting washer but hey ho, I have a box of them so not a big deal for me but... Worth noting, as a new one will be needed. Tap operates very well and the quarter turn operations make it very efficient. I particularly like the "plasticoated" lever handle; nice touch (literally). Important thing to note is that this tap does not have a non-return valve, so shouldn't be fitted to domestic mains water "as is" (UK law/regs require a valve). I overcame this by using the valve from my old tap, but it required some fettling... Old tap had a small step in the bore to stop/hold the plastic valve in place. This new tap is a straight bore, so just putting the valve in means it would have been flushed along the tap causing obstruction to the underside outlet. You can get separate valve fittings to go between the tap and the supply, but I didn't want to have the tap sticking out that extra amount. So... My solution which may be of use to others: 1. Remove old valve and check it will fit snugly into new tap; 15mm diameter. 2. Cut a piece of standard 15mm copper plumbing pipe to inside length of new tap barrel, minus length of valve. For me this was 42mm and guess would be the same for others*. 3. Drill or cut a 10mm (or thereabouts) hole through one side, centred at about 12mm from one end. This will allow flow through the lower outlet. 4. Drop the tube into the tap with the side hole end in first, and have the hole aligned to the lower outlet (take the lower outlet "spout" off to see up inside and check it's lined up). 5. Insert valve and push home. 6. Fit tap as normal. 7. Have cake (this is vital). * Double check measurements for your valve as I don't know how universal they are, but imagine will be the same. Hope that helps at least one fellow irrigator 🙏🏻

It's a high-quality product that offers excellent functionality and a stylish design. Positive Features: 1. The double outlet feature is a game-changer.

It combines functionality, style, and durability in a way that makes it stand out from other garden taps. Despite a few minor drawbacks, its benefits far outweigh them, making it a highly recommended product.

Looks good and easy to fit. Been through a couple of winters with no issues.

This tap has made it through 2 winters now, previous ones bust with a slight frost.

I wanted to run two hosepipes from the tap, and this is ideal. Some reviewers say they cannot get it to fit straight, but I had no issues. I only fitted it yesterday, and so far there are no leaks. Some reviewers have said the smaller lever is situated in the wrong place. I don't have an issue, and I have no problems turning either or both levers. I'm really happy with this product and I fitted it in a couple of minutes.

great tap

Dopo aver provato 3 diversi rubinetti comprati in negozi della grande distribuzione ho deciso di provare on-line: super soddisfatto!! Resistente, ben fatto e con comodo apertura a valvola sferica! Spedizione velocissima.

Por fin un grifo con las partes móviles de acero inoxidable y de buena calidad, ya no tengo que preocuparme de que se oxide como el otro que tenía.

Very nice quality

Utilisé pour alimenter 2 machines à laver. Parfait.

Prodotto come da descrizione, arrivato nei termini , perfettamente funzionante, buon acquisto.
