RL-Y-2

Y-type dual outlet

Two protection sets on one high-pressure tap

Splits a single high-pressure tap into two independently valved outlets, so one tap can feed two protection sets.

Size my system

A tap that fills a 9 litre bucket in under 15 seconds usually has headroom for more than two circuits. The Y outlet is how you use it: two protection sets on one tap, each with its own shut-off, which halves the plumbing work on a large roof.

The configurator adds one Y outlet automatically for every high-pressure tap that ends up carrying more than one set.

What is in the box

  • Brass Y body with two lever shut-offs
  • Washers and thread adapters

Compatibility notes

  • High-pressure taps only — do not use on average or low-pressure supplies.
  • Not a circuit splitter: each outlet must feed its own protection set.

Installs on a regular 3/4" tap

No plumber and no permanent pipework. The system connects to an ordinary outdoor tap — the same one you use for your garden hose. Standard outdoor taps carry a 3/4" (G3/4) male thread, which is what the supplied tap connector is made for.

Many taps ship with a hose tip, nozzle or aerator screwed onto the end. In most cases you can simply unscrew that tip by hand (or with light pliers) to reveal the bare 3/4" thread. Wrap two or three turns of the included thread-sealing tape, screw the connector on hand-tight, and the tap keeps working normally for everyday use.

Smaller 1/2" taps, indoor mixer taps and washing-machine valves are covered by the included thread adapters. If your tap has an unusual or worn thread, the garden hose connector lets you feed the system from any standard hose fitting instead.

A regular outdoor wall tap. Almost every European bib tap has a 3/4" (G3/4) male thread.
In most cases you simply screw off the hose tip or aerator to expose the bare 3/4" thread.
