Tap Tails for Bath

riderross

How long can tap tails be for bath taps? I am going to fit the following bath

http://www.tescobathrooms.com/bathroom-suites/small-bathroom-suites/milano-rydal-shower-bath-suite-1500

Due to having the taps in the corner. How awkward would it be to connect up?

Would I need to route the pipes under the boards to the bath taps?

Can I use plastic coupler to connect the tails to the supply pipe, just for ease or should I use compression, if so how difficult would it be.

Thanks

That is going to be difficult if your doing it yourself.

You would be best off using long flexi's and compression fittings.

You dont want to be soldering behind that, and flexis makes it MUCH easier.

toolstation do 500mm and 900mm flexi connectors.
for 15 and 22mm pipes.
about 5/10 quid each.

Can't help thinking that when the taps fail in the future and they need replacing, you are gonna kick yourself......
