Lest there is any doubt, these fecking hoses are NOT for use in CH systems!
Speedfit website clearly says so. Do not let any plumber fit them in your
house.


Do they get blocked easily?




I think the lining swells. Whether its just the long term effect of hot
water or the effect of corrosion inhibitors I dont know but the end effect
is no flow. When I get the *******ing thing out Ill cut it open and see.


I see.

I recently removed some old rads, and they had some very sticky black
gloop in. If that's bunging up your hose, you might be able to clear it
rather than replace it.
