Homemade bath mixer polypropylene 600 rubles

I have long wanted to solder homemade mixer and see what happens. The idea matured three years ago, wanted to install at this home-made, but the woman refused to. It is better to buy, say, I do not need such an initiative in the bathroom.

However, this idea did not leave me, and I I decided to just solder to the soul, and promised its subscribersThat are soldered and soldered, and now share with you the results.

Fitting

Set himself the task of how to solder a budget option. I bought crane 2, 4 - corner 1 - meter reinforced pipe 20, a tee, two union nut, else I had.

gathered case itself rather quickly, though not perfect, I made a couple of errors, which are then corrected, I will write about this in detail below, this is important.

It's time to collect, the spout in common, gander and then I hardship.

spout assembly

For the gander cut pipe to length I soldered two corners, one corner soldered pipe and cut off flush with the area. At this place I was planning to establish a union, which will be part of the diverter (shower switch-gander).

To install the connector removed from it all the cuff (rubber rings) heated on a gas burner and swimming in the landing place, also made with an aerator (threaded ring was brass).

All this I took the job three times longerThan to collect the body of the mixer, so gander easier to buy ready-made.

Building and installing

All I assemble and connect the mixer, Shower heads and hose leaving the old, as has recently been repaired, replaced the inner tube there.

Estimated that if all new take, the this mixer will cost in the aisles and a half thousand rubles. And the meaning is not homemade, even though it is low cost and it is important, but the fact that nothing was specifically oxidize and break down.

Surprisingly, mixer everyone likedAnd he took his place in the bathroom, it will be seen.

Now, remember what I I found a way to return a second life for soldering fittings and the method was so successful that even now brazed fitting can be reused.
