    Would anyone know where I could purchase a 21mm pushfit flexible hose for shower pump?
    Got 22mm with pump but obv need 21mm so I'm finding most places don't sell them on their own!
    Thank you

    Better off going into a local plumbing suppliers and buying a set of 3/4" flexi hoses with built in isolation valve.
    Cost less than half the price of the originals and will not snap off like the new Stuart Turners can do if they get a hard knock.

    Looks like this..

    Did this option work for you?

    I'm getting a pump in from the UK and want to ensure I can convert to Irish pipes.

    There have been a few threads on this before, especially discussing warranty.
    If you change the hoses you technically are changing the manufacturers specifications for that model pump and it can be a way for them to get out of a warranty call out.
    The way to ensure you stay in warranty is to get some 22mm copper pipe and use that to connect to the 22mm push fits, then get 22mm to 3/4" adaptors to connect back to your original pipework.
    You must also make sure that the flexible hoses, (a.k.a. anti vibration pipe connectors), are fitted almost perfectly straight up with no bending, as again this will invalidate your warranty.
    If warranty is not an issue, then my recommendation is the 3/4" hose pipes a few posts back.

    So if there is any bend at all that voids the warranty? My pipes won't allow it to be completely straight. 2 X 90degrees and 1 45 degree.

    The flexis should be straight. Any pipework after that can have bends. The more bends the more you slow the water though
