IIRC the old 1/2" copper pipe is so close to 15mm that new fittings
will go onto old pipes, but I'm not sure about the old 3/4" copper.

Will a 22mm compression fit or do I need an adaptor?

Go to a real merchant and ask for a "green" olive.Substitute this for
the one in your 22mm fitting.Cost pennies.


By a real merchant, do you mean one that stocks tartan paint, sky hooks &
long weights?
