A couple of weeks back I asked on here about soldering joints on existing
pipework. Having now had a good look around, i see that Conex et al
produceflame-free copper push fit pipe fittings, which are less chunky and
exactly what I need.

Also, Screwfix stock a plastic pipe system by FloPlast (Flo-Fit) at a good
price. Does anyone have any experience of it?

(Screwfix is finally coming to Cornwall on November 9th!)

Thanks



Why not just use solder fittings?
I (like many) consider push-fit to be crap, especially on CH systems.
Soldering really isn't hard, and will remain mechanically strong and
leak-free for decades. Push-fit relies on rubber 'O' rings.
