Hi All,

I'm replacing our own Main Avon multipoint water heater with a newer
Main Medway jobby.

So, I can either move them all in soldered copper, use compression
copper fittings or for the water at least use flexible tap connectors?
(Can they also be used for gas out of interest .. considering much
gas plumbing is in plastic these days (in the road at least!)) ;-)

They're absolutely prohibited for gas use. To be honest it really doesn't
sound as if you have the competence to do this job if you're asking
questions like this.


I dunno, I wouldn't have known this when I was looking to install my
first boiler

Which reminds me

when my brother moved into his last house, the gas cooker was connected
to the main via a bit of garden hose and a couple of jubilee clips
