Excellent. Thank you.
I have been trying to install this set up but I keep refilling and leak testing (4 times now!) and find leaks around one or both of the the spigot tapered threads. One seems to go in all the way up the thread while the other still has some thread visble once tight. I notice (now that I see this video!) you say "don't tighten too tight" but I have been tightenting as tight as I can, which seems to 'ruffle' the ptfe. should I apply more ptfe and leave a little looser to let the ptfe form the seal?
I think when tightening, I can feel that I'm tightening to the point of getting through the ptfe and have the metal threads tightening against eachother. is that too tight?
Any help would be great.
((I've always avoided tackling plumbing in the past but having youtube these days has enabled us laymen to tackle previously mystifying tasks. But there's no substitute for 'on the job' knowledge and experience, and doing these things for the first time is sometimes 'trying' (£*&%&£& **&%^$ )"(*$£&$&£^$%%**************cks!…. to say the least – after what has turned into 11 hours to basically fit a towel rail to the wall – looks nice but the house is cold! – You've got to laugh I guess! ))
Excellent, many thanks.
Are there any videos on how to prep plumbing for a heated towel rack during new construction?
Do these radiators come with a template showing you where the holes are instead of taking so much risk with measuring?
HOLD TIGHT
This was a great video until you literally skipped over the most important bit
Refreshing to see a plumber who's happy to work, pleasant & not humming and hawing, cheers fella!
If you are using this as a plug in device◉◉>imgs.love/HTowelWarmer?no you have a power cord @ about 5 foot long. Should be no problem for you. Hope this helps. Recommend it.
