not sure how to connect

Have just moved into a property with the laundry in the hallway. I'm not sure how to connect my washing machine as there is no taps to turn on just a valve and a pipe??? Can someone pls advise 😔 i only need the cold water connected.

Hi @tamie79 

 

 

It looks like you're already connected ?

 

You tried that tap and water came  out?  Well thats the one.

 

That other pipe maybe a drain line given its a hallway cupboard wastewater has to go somewhere?

Re: not sure how to connect

Hi @tamie79,

 

A warm welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community and thank you for your question.

 

Apologies for the delay in response.

 

As @Jewelleryrescue has already mentioned, it looks like you're already connected.

 

Is the issue that you can't find a tap or handle on the stopcock?

 

Are you able to feel anything on top of the stopcock?

 

Can you get a photo looking up at it?

 

It looks like you're pretty much there, but if you haven't had any success, please let me know so I can assist further.

 

Jacob
