Switch operated isolation valves

Hi you lot

Need a possible solution to remotely isolating hot and cold water feed to a wet room. Switch outside.

Have checked out the Surestop jobbies...they will do hot(up to 60 degrees) but I'm not confident in their reliability long term due to the valve/switch arrangement, and the little pipe/cable to the switch not being accessible for maintenance once fitted. Would also have to extend this as the supplied 2m would be pushing it. I know they do an extension, but I'm thinking its adding a potential weak link to the chain!

Any thoughts?

 

Thanks guys, will take a proper look later

 

Those look perfect...thanks Deleted member 11267. Selv transformer and good to go.

 

Want to say a big thank you to Deleted member 11267 for suggesting these valves. Installed and working a treat.

Here's a pic. Note bypass links...in case they **** up

 

Knew that was gonna come up so let me educate you Luddites

I always use copper and EF where possible, however, there are times where PF excels. The valves themselves have PF connections...have to work with that, but the feed into them, via full bore isolators are teed off the feeds from the boiler...all in copper and soldered. After the valves...yes PF tees...could have soldered, but, but, if the valves stop working, it makes it easier to insert bypass links while new ones are sourced...just a case of space. What you can see, is the feed to the shower, again via full bore isolator. The pipes disappearing down, are the hot and cold to the was basin and toilet. Pex is perfect for running through stud work, especially when you have to avoid a few obstacles along the way. Always convert to copper where visible...so there [/QUOTE]

 

Thanks Joe...was starting to feel guilty!
