Cupro-fit or Speedfit?
Hi,
Quick question. I need to modify some pipework in our CH system on the primary and secodnary side. Want to do it with the minumum of fuss and maximum of speed due to the cold weather. Was going to use 22m copper pipe with either Speedfit or Cuprofit connectors. Which would you chaps recommend? Thanks, Matthew |

None. Conex compression joints. |

Speedfit are a little easier to make/demount. -- Grunff |

If using the previous Speedfit make sure you fit the collet clips for security and make sure there cannot be any bending force on the joint.

Cupro-fit or Speedfit?
I've just fitted a new central heating system using mainly speedfit. Had
1 failure where the rubber O ring seal inside a T fitting moved out of it's slot, but this was probably due to me not feeding the pipe end in squarely due to the poor access. Stripped fitting down re-seated O ring, re-filled and OK. I would use speedfit again. Gary "Matthew" wrote in message ups.com... Hi, Quick question.

Cupro-fit or Speedfit?
I know that push fit plumbing systems are disliked by some people
but Ive not had any issues so far. I didnt want to start a war just some useage advice. Sounds like either type will be ok and caveat on speedfit is to use collet clips to deter any tamperings from kids etc. I am always very careful and use wheel cutters, new pipe etc. Surely pushfit cant be that bad. Ive just bought a shower pump that had speedfit built in and most new builds seem to use it throughout from the riser upwards. Talking to a chap from speedfit technical a while back, I quizzed him about failures etc. He mentioned that the issue is mainly with professionals rushing the job and not taking due care and attention. Years ago I used to use compression fittings and they can be a pain, sometimes weeping, boss paste etc. Then trying to do soldered joints without dry pipes etc. I have never used cuprofit but it looks tamper proof and a bit neater maybe. Speedfit on the other hand always seems to create a very secure joint. Matthew |

Ive just bought a shower pump that had speedfit built in and most new builds seem to use it throughout from the riser upwards. New builds use it so the Pikeys don't steal the copper, and the skill level is low so inexperienced men can fit it and one qualified man passes it. Talking to a chap from speedfit technical a while back, I quizzed him about failures etc. He mentioned that the issue is mainly with professionals rushing the job and not taking due care and attention. He would say that. Many professionals have had ceilings drop in on them causing 20Ks worth of damage. Years ago I used to use compression fittings and they can be a pain, sometimes weeping, boss paste etc. Then trying to do soldered joints without dry pipes etc. "Good" quality compresison joints don't leak and are easy to fit using the right spanners. I have never used cuprofit but it looks tamper proof and a bit neater maybe. Speedfit on the other hand always seems to create a very secure joint. Work some more with it and see what you think. I know no professional that fits plastic on sites that would have it in his house. |

What's the cost multiple of end feed capillary vs proprietory? Very, very small. Looking at some prices on toolstation, I see that typically, you'll get 8-18 end feed things, for the cost of one push-fit. Of course, you can almost always safely reuse end-feed, by simply warming it up, tapping out the old solder, and pulling a damp cotton rag through while hot. |

What's the cost multiple of end feed capillary vs proprietory? If you mean the cost differential between end feed and copper push fit - quite considerable over an installation. Screwfix prices for 100 15mm couplers are per unit:- end feed 0.11 quid push fit 1.15 quid So over 10 times the cost. For a one off job this won't matter much as it's likely quicker, but can matter over an entire installation. Depending on how quick you are at soldering, and how you value your time. I just prefer the security of soldered joints as well as the look. Other thing which may matter is they give a near perfect electrical connection. -- *If your feet smell and your nose runs, you're built upside down.

Cupro-fit or Speedfit?
Yes, I second Garys views. In my experience Speedfit is fine if you assemble
it carefully - I had a couple of o-rings move out of place the first time I used it, but have the nack now. My local Plumb Centre claim to sell approx 40% copper to 60% plastic pipe and fittings, so it can't be that bad! "Gary" wrote in message ...

Much smaller in diameter hence easy to put two fittings side by side. Electical connectivity is maintained.
