Question 1

Does this screw onto the original tap or do i have to remove it and replace with this one?

Accepted Answer

Hi there,

This item does screw onto the shut off tap or feed under your sink etc. and the other 2 washing machine size ends allow you to screw a pipe on to each of them.

Question 2

Would this work for dishwasher and plumber in fridgefreezer (instead o washing machine)?

Accepted Answer

You need to check the type of connection (male/female) and size. It seems similar online You could compare with your washing machine to verify. I don't know how your fridge hose is.

Question 3

Can you fit both warm and cold hoses to this y connection

Accepted Answer

My honest opinion is that I would ho somewhere such as Tool Station,Screw fix or B&Q and get one. The one on here is made if cheap plastic & is the incorrect size for uk pipes (out by mm's) 
Flooded my entire house due to incorrect sizings.

Question 4

Can I use this for waste water from my dishwasher?

Accepted Answer

I felt bad so wrote it all out again for you. 
Hi, well guess U connectors are usually used to split the SUPPLY water between something like a washing machine and a dishwasher say. The waste water from both of these machines would go into bigger piping.e.g.I extended my dishwasher waste with a long hosepipe that goes into the top of an open ended one and a half inch pipe which I swap over with my washing machine whichever I'm using. You can buy dishwasher waste kits that would have a bit that you could slide your waste pipe onto and secure with a jubilee clip. You'd install it probably under your sink but with either of these machines you have to be aware of the height at which you connect it to the waste, as if it's too low it could automatically siphon off the water from your machine in the middle of it's cycle causing the machine's sensor to turn it off due to lack of water etc.
As an aside the Y featured that I bought via Amazon was totally unusable due to its threads being faulty. I tried every trick I had after a lifetime of being a Marine Engineer and nothing worked so it's just sitting on top of my dishwasher as a reminder that even if you know what to do product quality can kill the project, I found a workaround for my situation but I'm pretty eccentric. Good luck
