Ali baba water feature

Hi,

 

I have a client with an ali baba terracotta urn water feature.  It needs repairing.  I thought I had sorted it . But it needs the proper fittings to connect the pump tubing at the bottom of the pot to a pipe that goes inside the pot in the center and up to the top of the pot. I am struggling to find the right fittings. Any help would be great.

Thanks 

 

Richard

    Do you mean a water feature featuring Ali Baba, which is how I originally read it or a water feature from Alibaba?

    Reading it again you did say Ali Baba URN, so I would not have thought the pipework was too involved, however I just wondering if it could be imperial rather than metric.

    When plumbing American fridge freezers for customers I have run into issues when they have lost the original plumbing fittings supplied with the appliance, because they have 1/4” Speedfit type fittings.

    However these are available in Ireland, so in the past I got them from a small hardware shop in Northern Ireland through EBay.

    There is a firm in Norwich selling 1/4”, 5/16” and 3/8” Speedfit on EBay, they are listed as being for fridges, beer coolers and vending machines.

"Hi Billy, that's a really good idea, even if the contracts are a mix of 'subsciption' and ad-hoc, it at least covers the expense in a worst case scenario. "
