Adapter for Re-Cycled water tap
Hoping someone may be able to help.
I live in an area where we have a re-cycled water tap outside for gardening that has a different thread on the tap. I think its a reverse thread. Anyway the problem is that I want to put one of those 1 into 4 water spliters on the tap but they all use the std thread.
With the spare 5 mins I had to look thru bunnings I could only work out a one way to do what I want. Fit the std recycle water fitting on the tap then click in a 'double adapter' thingy then screw a clicky thing on to the splitter then I can click the whole lot together. It's not cost prohibitive but the thing ends up 6 ft long and just about hits the ground.
Does anyone know an easier option.
If I knew a plumber I'd get him to illeagally replace the recycled water tap fitting back to a std one but I dont know a plumber.

Buy a $2 brass garden tap from Bunnings and some plumbers tape, turn off the water and replace it yourself.

Agree with Burnsy, but put a sign warning that it is recycled water at the tap to avoid people trying to drink from the tap.
