Go to a decent plumber's merchant with the pump and explain what you're trying to do. They will have the parts in stock, I guarantee it.If yu present a problem like that, they become interested and really do try to help, in my experience. Makes a difference from dealing with the same old, same old, every day.VinCheers Vin thanks for your advice, I will do that.Regards lal
Hi all i've recently bought a 64987 Draper Booster pump to transfer water from garden tap to RO in my van as mainswater pressure here is not great, have not connected it yet, the inlet and outlet ports on the pump are size 1inch,I want to connect it to a standard half inch garden Hozelock hose, was wondering which connectors I should get,or what any of you guys use for similar or same setup, any advice would be very appreciated.Regards lal

They should sell the nylon barbs and adapters - I do not think that they currently stock the QR metal fitting, but they should do something similar in plastic.Best to check with them though as they do have some items that are not listed on the website.Thanks again Alex for your advice.Regards lal
