Can anyone advise please - I'm trying to join two pipes of slightly unequal diameters together (because I broke the top off the new water pump when fitting it!) as shown on the photo but having trouble getting a airtight seal. The non-return valve is directly above the reich pump. Hence we're:
a) losing pressure from the taps which consequently takes a little while to build back up, and
b) the air in the system is causing the hot water taps to splurt and cough before water is drawn back through the boiler.
Question - are there any sealants/adhesives which are safe to use inside the fresh water tank since they will come into contact with the water (I'm assuming bathroom silicon sealant is not suitable?). Are stainless steel worm drive jubilee type clips suitable inside a tank?
Thanks
John
