Internal Stop Tap Replacement explained
Internal stop taps are relocated to an accessible position with a drain-off fitted, and clearly labelled for whoever lives there next.
- Position and access: Confirm the component identity and model-specific requirements before deciding whether adjustment, testing or replacement is appropriate.
- Drain-off point fitting: Confirm where condensate should discharge and whether the obstruction, pump or drainage arrangement is responsible.
- Full bore valve: Check movement, control command and the effect on flow together; the actuator and valve body can fail independently.
- Labelling for occupants: Confirm the component identity and model-specific requirements before deciding whether adjustment, testing or replacement is appropriate.
Interpreting the reported fault
Confirm the old component identification, required duty and connection compatibility. Establish why it failed before replacing it. Where the application has changed, a like-for-like replacement may reproduce the same problem.
- Reported symptom: an internal stop tap that leaks or cannot be reached

What the reported symptom tells us
an internal stop tap that leaks or cannot be reached. Record when this occurs, what changed beforehand and whether other equipment is affected. These observations narrow the investigation; they do not prove which part has failed.
Like for like still needs checking
