Has anyone used this piping?

My whole house both CH and water is done in Osmagold pushfit plastic, except
the boiler to HW tank and pipework to loft which is copper. If you read the
Osmagold documentation bits near the boiler etc need to be in copper in case
the boiler faults and starts blowing superheated water around the pipework.
Osmagold is at www.wavin.co.uk. I got all my new bits from local Travis
Perkins.

Just added two kick space heaters on the CH system this weekend. Popped in a
couple of 15mm T's, ran 15mm pipe down wall behind plaster board, luckily
builders used very generous dot and daubs to attach the kitchen plaster
board, connected to heaters, refilled and Fernox'ed system and all OK.

Two recommendations are buy a proper set of pipe cutters, makes the job
easier (£9 from Wickes) and get some silicone lubricant (£4) as it makes
reseating seals and pushing in pipe easier. You are supposed to scrap the
grab rings and M ring seals, but if you are careful you can push the grab
rings off existing pipe and reuse them. Oh remember to put the inserts in
the pipe before fixing.
