    Default Taps and hoses

    This will probably sound like a dumb question.....

    We don't have a garden tap, just kitchen ones. Dh says you can't attach a hose to them but our neighbours (in terraced housing) have hoses so I'm wondering if you can use some kind of adaptor to attach a hose to an ordinary kitchen tap?

    Yay! Thank you both

    Our taps have short ends like these bathroom ones http://ecommerceshoppingcartsolution...&products_id=1
    Do you think they would be ok with the adaptors?

    I would have thought so, with the one we have, you put the tap through the hole and then screw it to tighten it up and attach the hose. I can't see why that wouldn't work on your tap.
