Can those that have the Bullfinch shower point give me ideas of how the connection is made from the 10mm ID (16mm OD) hose that feeds the water around the van to the 15mm pushfit to go on the Bullfinch?

I have the John Guest pushfits to go on the shower and I can easily get a 10mm Y piece to tap off the water supply but I'll still be left with a barb to 15mm conundrum.
This item can be brought but I believe the barb will be too big.

Ideally I want a T piece with a 10mm barb on two ends and a 15mm pipe on the remainder.

I can head to a plumbers merchant tomorrow but I'm concerned I'll end up with multiple bit with thread x to thread y.

I hate plumbing, still stuck in the dark ages with all this 3/8 BSP / tapered BSP crap. About time the industry got its act together IMO.
Here is the pipe connection, Sorry about the birds nest, it's on my to-do list.

I did it this way with the whale push fit straight and 1/2” barb to whale push fit:

Ah OK I was under the impression the 1/2" barb would be too bit for the 10mm ID hose but seeing what you have put my mind at rest.
Thanks for this.

or warm the end with a hair dryer, makes pushing it on a lot easier đź‘Ť
