what fitting do i need to connect to the condensate waste from the boiler ?? I have 21.5mm pipe and straight coupling, but the coupling is a couple of mm too big ?
 
They used to supply a grey connector to connect up...............We now like a challenge!
 
well they have supplied nowt, and I'm stuck scratching my head lol
 
Yes the pipe should go straight on without a socket.
 
pre heat your condense pipe ,push and turn into the boiler connection ,let it cool down ,then pull out and apply solvent weld !
 
you may have been given a boiler with a euro size connection, phone the manufacture and ask them why it does not come supplied with a bs size connection as its been sold in the uk.
 
if i remember right the last vaillant i did, the condensate just pushed up into the grey pipe, was a struggle mind, it was an ecotec 28kw i think
 
well I had 21.5mm pipe, wouldn't push onto the connection, ended up heating the pipe and doing it that way, just wondering if it was common or if something was missing.
