Default Compression Fittings

Hi All

Decided to put some basic compression fittings into stock. Checked out
Screwfix and they seemed dearer than Wickes.

Quick check on 15mm straight, 90 elbow & equal tee in packs of 10. Screwfix
were dearer! Toolstation beat both of them!

Buying a pack of each from Toolstation is over a £5 (25% ish) cheaper than
Screwfix.

Pays to shop around innit?

Compression fittings and myself fell out years ago and have never
really got on. I use push-fit now, and copper push-fit where they will
be seen.

It just saves so much stress and aggro checking for that little tiny
drip on the bottom of the compression joint every few minutes
