These taps come with, as standard, through wall tail pipes. These cannot be cut down, but can be lengthened if needed using standard plumbing practices. However, we supply taps with through wall tail pipe lengths to fit wall thickness's from 4" upto to 24", although extra longer tail pipe taps may not always be in stock and therefore delivery maybe slightly delayed.
Separate hot and cold inlet tubes allow for manually operated temperature control with cross contamination protection.

There is an option for a "gravity fed" hot water feed or an "under pressure" hot water feed;
Gravity fed hot water is a hot water feed from a hot water cylinder, usually near your bathroom, which in turn is fed from a, much higher up, header tank often situated in the loft.
Under Pressure hot water feed is the option to choose if your hot water is fed from, for example, a combi boiler or a mains or pump pressurised water heating system.
