Re: Whirlpool Top loader tap adapter

I have the adaptors in stock but you are looking at around £25 for a pair if my memory serves. I’m away at the moment but will be back home tomorrow night. If you give me a call on 07956324546 i will dig some out for you and get a more accurate price.

A little jokingly perhaps but yes. Though cutting metal would be a possibility, on a plastic valve thread, not so. :snig:

Re: Whirlpool Top loader tap adapter

I have seen lots of these machines which after many years of use have needed new inlet hoses due to deterioration.
Due to cost and non availability of spares I fit a standard 3/4 bsp hose which does away with the need for the adaptor which is only for the tap end.
The thread on the inlet valve is not too dissimilar to 3/4 bsp and it will go on ok and no need for PTFE tape as the seal is on the rubber washer and not on the threads.
Not all hoses are the same and some fit better than others so maybe try a different make.
