FixTheBog™ Professional Thru Wall Garden Tap Kit 350mm Flange — GT1
The FixTheBog™ GT1 is a professional-grade through-wall garden tap kit designed for a robust, reliable outdoor water installation. Far superior to self-cutting saddle valves, this kit includes an isolating compression tee, an integral double check valve bib tap to prevent backflow, and an extended 350mm brass through-wall flange pipe to comfortably reach through thick exterior cavity walls and kitchen cabinetry. Complete with fixing screws, plugs, PTFE tape, push-fit connector, and step-by-step instructions, it delivers a long-lasting, leak-free system that withstands high water pressure and winter freezing conditions.

Key Features
- Water Regulations Compliant: Built-in double check valve prevents back-siphonage and contamination of mains supply.
- Pressure Washer Safe: Full-bore compression isolating tee provides maximum flow without the leakage risks of self-tapping valves.
- Winter Drain-Down Protected: Easy-turn isolation valve allows full internal water shut-off while leaving the outer tap open during freezing months.

Installation Note
This kit features a 350mm through-wall flange, providing extra length compared to standard 300mm units—ideal where pipework must pass through thick cavity walls or behind wide kitchen cabinets. Always ensure the internal isolating valve is shut and the outdoor tap left open during freezing winter months to prevent frost damage.
