Had one Speedfit (tm) fail where the grab ring (plastic 'crown' shaped

Had
one Hep2O fail where the O ring split. Had one Speedfit weep where it

went
onto copper pipe which was a bit gritty or dented (forget which).

Discovered
that 22mm Speedfit doesn't work on 3/4" copper tube :-)


You are filling me with confidence about Speedfit fittings. I can't
wait to give them a try.


Use copper pipe (cheap) and brass or copper pushfit fitting. A better
setup. These fittings are now the same price as plastic.
