you can get a flexicoupling with a valve incorperated
 
i would advise you use this, WRAS Hose 15mm Valve x ½â€￾ F x 300mm x 10mm - NoLinkingToThis, Where the Trade Buys make sure you use paste if the fitting you are connecting to is copper , if it is plastic you will not need paste .
 
Sure you dont mean a service valve with tap connector ??

PS your paste must, of course, be suitable for potable water systems.
 
Thanks for advice so far, i currently have this:



I just want to put a push fit or speedfit valve on the copper side and the metal piece to the plastic water in section on the cistern.

I want a valve so I am able to keep the water in the house on while i work. Would this Wras item do it:

WRAS 15mm Quick Valve - NoLinkingToThis, Where the Trade Buys
 
Yep, that should do it, dont forget your fibre washer and if you choose a potable jointing paste.

Plum Bob:)
 
Cheers All for the advice, ill be buying.

WRAS 15mm Quick Valve - NoLinkingToThis, Where the Trade Buys

Quick question can anyone recommend some paste, I get its got to be potable.

But what does the actual paste do and go?

Thank in Advance.

This issue arose about a year ago. Does anyone have an idea why I occasionally hear (about once every hour or longer) a hammer related noise coming from my copper water pipes when no water is being used? It basically sounds like the noise you hear after the water shuts off when your toilet bowl...
