Hi,
I have a 2 in 1 laundry tap as pictured in the attachment.
I would like to convert it into a standard single tap fitting.
Please advise on how to do this.

Can you show us a picture of the tap or fitting you wish to replace, in situe, or where you intend to fit one? I'll be honest and say that I don't really understand your question so if we could see a picture of where you want to put the tap I might understand a little better.

Thanks.
 
That tap goes into an existing valve body, so you will have 2 outlets off the same body if you install that tap.
Hence, the 2 handles.

If you want the existing tap to do a washing machine or dishwasher (20mm hose connection) - go buy a washing machine stop tap.
If you want it to connect to a tap (15mm connection ) - go buy a mini stop tap.

There is no descent way of connecting that tap to 1 outlet, unless you cap off one outlet

Our kitchen mixer tap has started dripping. Like so much of the plumbing in our almost new build bungalow, it is lacking! The plumber didn't install any isolating cocks in the H&C feed to the tap so how can I identify which of the valves is passing? Shut the whole H&C water system down?
