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

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.

Marley Equator is better. Available from large B&Q Warehouse and
http://www.unifix-online.co.uk The fittings are steel encapsulated and the
inserts are steel too, so less chance of warping.

Make sure all plastic fittings are clipped either side to avoid tension on
the joint.
