HOZELOCK - Multi-Tap Connector 2-Way: Ideal for creating 2 circuits on a single faucet, with independent flow valve for each socket [2252,000]

This Hozelock 2‑way tap connector is excellent quality and does exactly what it promises. It’s perfect for running two hoses or irrigation systems from a single outdoor tap, and the independent flow valves make it easy to adjust or shut off each side separately. The connector feels sturdy and well‑built, with a secure, leak‑free fit once attached. The seals are tight, and both outlets maintain strong water pressure even when used simultaneously. Fitting it took less than a minute—no tools needed—and it’s compatible with all my existing Hozelock fittings. It’s a great solution for anyone with multiple watering zones or who wants to split a tap between a sprinkler and a hose. Reliable, easy to use, and built to last—highly recommended.

I really like the quality of these, they feel like fairly strong plastic. I bought one a couple of years ago and it is still working, so I would say it's quite durable. The connectors have a rubber seal which help prevent leaks and I've not had an issue, especially when using PTFE tape before screwing them on. It also has another connector at each end so that in theory you could daisy-chain these together and allows you to swap between the supply coming in from the left or coming in from the right. I connect mine to some Sonoff SWV (Smart Water Valves) so that I can automate all of the watering of the plants and the grass. I would recommend bringing it in over winter though to increase its lifespan and especially so that water doesn't freeze in it. You can take it off easily because you fix the bracket with a hook on it to a wall (or in my case a small post) and then you just slot the 4-way connector into the hook. The individual taps allow you to either fully open or partially open the value for each tap, which can be quite useful for irrigation systems where you might not want the full pressure. I wouldn't say that it's particularly cheap, but I've bought cheaper ones before and you just end up buying more of them in the same time period.

Double hose good quality too uses is good made up with it

I bought this to replace a brass effect one that I had attached directly to the tap spout. Despite plumbing tape, that one was never water tight, always leaked and the levers to open or close the flow were really difficult to use as they were small and uncomfortable. It being low down at tap height didn't help. This hozelock one has solved all that and is cheaper too. I've installed it at waist height so it's easy to access and I was surprised to find it's totally water tight out of the box. I bought new plumbing tape but haven't needed it! The knobs to open and close flow are a bit stiff, but they are much more comfortable and easier to use. It came with several connectors already, so I just ran a short piece of hose from the tap to the unit and connected everything up. Very pleased. Ideal solution for me so far.

Previously I have bought the brass 2 way connectors and both have failed after a few months. The Hozelock feel better quality and work well, hopefully it will pass the test of time.

I wanted something reasonably priced and easy to install and I’m okay with doing a bit of care/maintenance, so purchased this. For the price it is not crazy expensive and having independent control for the two outlets so not having to constantly swap hoses of different sizes helps. It includes adaptors for different tap sizes (½", ¾", 1" BSP), so it’s more likely to fit what I already have. That reduces the risk of needing another fitting. So far no issues or leaks but will see in time and will need to remove in the colder winter days as only plastic.

Feels tough, seals well, and the on/off switches are satisfyingly solid Highlights: -> Splits one outdoor tap into two outlets cleanly -> Feels good quality; nothing flimsy or creaky -> On/off switches are firm and positive to use -> Hand-tight fit and washer sealed well for me—no drips Things to Consider: -> Like any splitter, running both outlets can trim flow a bit -> Check your tap thread size and washer seating for the best seal -> Slightly bulkier than a single adaptor, so allow some clearance behind the tap

we had this for 7 years now and the valves open and close reliably. we alsways left it connected, and now is has started to leak and a fine spray of water escapes from the back side of the unit (main body consists of two parts.. It had a good run and given the prive we paid, I am happy.
