I guess a flexi that is used on a toilet supply needs to be wras approved. Even though its not supplying drinking water. But incase the system experiences back flow. Am I correct?
 
Yes but tbh anything you supply/ fit should be wras approved
 
I just saw a 500mm flexi in screwfix one with an iso valve that isn't wras approved. Can't think why you'd want one with an iso valve on for a heating system.

Because it's a normal cold water one :D always pipe up expansion vessels in copper

And some people just don't care fitt anything

Reckon most expansion vessels I see have a flexi, thought it was the norm.
 
IMO , most wras gear is generally better quality rather than the normal Far East junk
 
Not wras approved though. Thus not suitable to put on the toilet feed? Need a longer one than 300mm.
 
Thanks is the above flexi not suitable to pipe a toilet up with, because its not wras approved. Cant see the purpose of it, when do you need a flexi with and iso valve on, on a heating system?
 
I would not use them on heating only on hot and cold supplies stick with the wras approved product generally better quality . cheers kop
 
Why do you need it that long ?
 
Have you tried BES? Do plumbing items need to be specifically WRAS approved? I thought that just meant they'd given someone in WRAS a backhander or sexual favours? What if it has a KIWA approval or suitable BS?

What is correct toilet supply line
Hi. I need a new toilet supply line but donā€™t know the size type of the fitting at the shut off valve. It is not 3/8 compression. It is a plastic nut about the same size as the one going into the cistern but has a different thread. Attached is a photo. Can you advise. Thanks.
