Hi all

I intend to run a new feed to my kitchen hot tap as the existing one takes
a tortuous route, takes ages to run hot and has low flow when it finally
arrives. The new feed will come from above and be chased in/platered over
until the run is below worktop level.
So the idea was to run plastic pipe inside plastic conduit, the conduit
being plastered in just enough to give a plaster skim cover.
Are there any gotchas here - tiles falling off hot walls, recommended
depth of chase etc.?

TIA

Phil


It sounds fine. The drops to my radiators are done like that.

Just remember where the pipe is though. My first job this morning resulted
in me drilling through a hot water pipe that ran horizontally just behind
the plaster! Copper pipe just below the plaster skim.
