Is that likely to be a problem with any of the plastic plumbing systems
though and even a pressurised system is only run at 1 bar or so.

Just a heads up more than anything else. The drop in pressure rating
with temperature is quite dramatic.

Do rodents like it? They don't attack copper but nice soft chewy
things seem to be a magnet for little teeth. They might not be able
to get a start on plain pipe but the sticky out bits of fittings are
just asking to gnawed and once they can get a bit of purchase the
little bleeders don't stop.
