Thank you for any help.
I use copper with soldered elbows where the pipes turn to come out of the
wall, or plastic with a compression elbow. In either case test for
water-tightness before plastering and tiling in (obviously)
....and its no bad idea to fit an insulation sleeve round it to prevent
plaster contacing copper - and allow for expansion.
