James in Netherlands

Hello, we just moved into a house in the Netherlands and are struggling to fit our washing machine. We have a Samsung washing machine with the standard 1/2 in inlet pipe. The wall has a fitting I've never seen before which after research is a flamco safetap (Google Image Result for https://uploads.ifdesign.de/award_img_51/conv_19119_1999_ecology_040.jpg - https://images.app.goo.gl/xREuMvLC7WgPR6kbA). The hardware shops I've visited say they've never seen this before and it's old and they cannot provide an adaptor.
Any advice where I can buy one (flamco do not sell this anymore). I am waiting for the landlord in case they have an old one.

I have moved our washing machine into the garage but there isn’t a drain for the waste pipe. The attached image is of the waste pipe with the condensate pipe from the boiler, can I use a tee join and connect the washing machine pipe? The pipe leads outside and is saddled to the main waste pipe.

Hello, I'm installing a new kitchen which will have a dishwasher and washing machine. As I'm cutting/teeing into the cold mains 15mm pipe (before the kitchen sink taps) to feed the dishwasher and washing machine is it worth fitting a isolation valve with a built-in check valve? Regards Tezzer
