Description
Start your hose at the kitchen sink
A suitable kitchen tap can be a useful water source for a hose. This orange kitchen tap adaptor fits around a downward-facing spout, giving it a male garden-hose quick-connect outlet.
The white washer sits beneath the tap outlet. An orange hinged lever and screw-adjustable lower collar hold the frame in position, so you can attach a compatible female hose connector below it.
One orange-and-black adaptor supplied. Use your own hose and suitable female connector, or choose the separate connector shown above.
Three checks for a suitable tap
Orientation: the tap needs a downward-facing outlet that can sit above the white washer. The frame surrounds the spout rather than screwing onto an aerator thread.
Clearance: compare the spout with the approximate 35mm width and 35mm height shown in the guide. These dimensions describe space for the tap, not hose diameter or a BSP thread size.
Alignment: the outlet must meet the washer squarely, with enough room for the lever and lower collar to secure the frame. An unusually shaped spout may not suit the adaptor even when it is within the clearance dimensions.
From tap to hose in three stages
Position the seal
With the tap off, unscrew the lower section enough to place the adaptor around the spout. Seat the white washer directly beneath the outlet.
Set the adjustment
Lower the orange lever and screw the lower collar up by hand until the adaptor is held in place. Do not overtighten or force the fitting onto a tap that does not suit it.
Click on your connector
Attach a compatible female quick connector on your hose to the male outlet. Open the tap gradually and check the connection. If water escapes at the tap, turn it off and reposition the washer.
Choosing your connection
Is this a screw-on kitchen tap adaptor?
No. Its frame fits around a suitable spout and is secured with the lever and adjustable lower collar. Check the spout shape, clearance and downward-facing outlet against the guide.
Which hose connector do I need?
The male outlet takes a compatible standard Hozelock-type or Gardena-type female quick connector. For a ½-inch hose, our separate black-and-orange female hose connector is one suitable option. Choose the hose-end size to match your hose.
Are the hose and connector included?
No. This product contains one orange kitchen tap adaptor. The hose, female connector and tap in the installation illustration show how it is used and are not part of the pack.
What should I check if water escapes at the spout?
Turn the tap off, remove the adaptor and realign the white washer beneath the outlet. Avoid overtightening. If the outlet cannot sit squarely on the washer, use an adaptor suited to that tap shape.
