Does anyone know where I can get one of these that will fit a 3/4inch pipe (coming out of the wall)? Everywhere (even the maker, Bristan) seem to only sell 1/2 inch ones.

Many thanks.

What exactly is is in the wall? A 3/4" BSP female socket of some sort? You might find something in Mira's Commercial Range, but a 3/4" x 1/2" bush would probably be easiest.
(I'd solder the bush onto the 1/2" oultlet pipe to reduce possible leakage in the wall, then PTFE and wind it in.)

If it's a PIPE coming out of the wall, Aqualisa do elbows that slide over a 22mm pipe.

I've just got a threaded water pipe coming out of the wall, which the previous shower elbow screwed on to, and sat fluch with the wall. However, no-one does the size.

Do you know what's actually in the wall?

Not really. Since I've just tiled around the outlet, I don't really wanna find out!
