whats th differnce? Which do i need for copper piped CH?
thanks, NT-
I didn't use any goo for my CH and it never leaks. Only problem
arises
with
scratched olives and/or copper pipes.

I use jet blue from plumb centre 'cause it's good for gas and also
potable water.
Some people wrap a turn of ptfe around an olive.
I never trust a com,pression fitting. Only use them where
manufacturer
has provided them and there is no other way of connecting to their
appliance. Never use them by choice.
They use them a lot on board ship and never use a compound, but they
also get a lot of leaks which they don't give a toss about. Youve got
decorating and carpets to think about.

OK, I'm undoing joints made with hemp and gloop, and reassembling, so I
assume I shall need gloop. I just dont know which gloop. I dont have
any hemp btw
thanks, NT
