Hi All,
I'd like to install new radiators in my home which are currently fed by copper pipe via the floor boards. I live in a bungalow and access beneath floorboards is quite good access. I'd like to change the piping to come out the walls instead and therefore looking to use speedfit products...
Are JG Speed fit fittings compatible with most 15mm plastic pipe?
I want to swap out the tees and replace with JG Speedfit. Mainly because I'm not happy with the Flexi hose going into the back of the shower mixer valve. I want to remove the Flexi, fit a new one with an 90 elbow on the end, from...
Hi everybody, what's the best way of replacing this leaking & corroded yorkshire T under the floorboards ??
Along with many other things in this property it's been leaking for years probably never installed properly in the first place!
I am a little worried about using my small GAZ blowlamp...
Hi,
I have a timber frame extension with no radiators on the walls currently so I'm looking to add one, all walls are external with a vapour barrier
I was just wondering if anyone has any experience fishing 10mm pipe down a wall from the loft above
I was thinking to cut a 100mm slot out...
I'm chasing some walls and using speedfit for pipes to the radiators.
I'll be using conduit and want to transition to copper ends which will connect to the rads. Can I bury the speedfit fittings (elbows etc)?
What are the options for pipe exiting the wall and connecting to the rads? Do I...
Hi.
What would you recommend for pipe support whilst running 15mm central heating pipes parallel to floor joists?
My idea is to screw wood supports perpendicular to the joists and clip the pipes to the top, or, screw-in wood supports with 22mm holes and pass through the pipe.
When the pipe...
I'm installing a waste pump in wet zone area(ground floor concrete) Waste pump has 22mm feeds which I would normally connect to soil pipe with boss strap. However the soil pipe is clay embedded in concrete with a 90° pan connector going straight into the ground. I've seen the pan conns with...
Been in the garage having a practise with 3-part compression reducers on 10mm Speedfit pipe and it hasn’t gone particularly well and i wonder what i am doing wrong?
I found that the olive (swapped a copper one for the brass one due to plastic pipe) and bottom part that pokes out of the nut were...
I am replacing a standard rad with a towel rail in the en-suite and the existing pipes are 10mm Speedfit and not easy to change. The wall is standard breezeblock with plasterboard over the top. I am considering how best to re-align pipework for the new rail and would appreciate advice.
One easy...
good evening,
i'm moving my sink to a different wall. i've bought 15mm speedfit layflat for my basin taps, it's quite expensive and i'm not going to use the majority of it. the more i research, the more confidence i get that i may be able to take out the electric shower and put in a mixer...
I’m considering my options for moving (JG) pipework from an inaccessible place whilst the floor is up. One option might be to use 2 x JG 4-port manifolds, mounted in a much more convenient location. But, this would mean adding 2 - 3 metres to the 10mm tails (off flow and return) and i’m not sure...
A couple of years ago I had a new central heating system installed as part of a full modernisation. Unfortunately I’ve been having problems with other aspects of the renovation so for a while I’ve been running it without a control system or TRV’s (I have a Honeywell EvoHome set ready to go but...

Hi
Would anybody be interested in a job lot of 22mm speedfit pipe. I have around 300 lengths left and looking to clear some space due to a house move. They are 2 meter lengths and I’m just looking to get back what I paid. I paid 70 pence a length and will deliver in the Birmingham area
Thanks
As per the title. What do you think of using Speedfit in part of the cental heating system?
In particular a 15mm x 300mm flexi pipe. Bent at 90 degrees. See link.
Not sure what I am dealing with yet but I suspect a leaky Yorkshire elbow below the floorboards.
Rather than remove it, clean it...
Plastic Polybutylene Pipes - Polypipe, Flofit, Hep2O, JG Speedfit, Pipelife?
Pipes not fittings, are they all much the same, does it just come down to price, do people have preferences and why?
Hi, Ive hot a lot of standing water under my floorboards.
I cant get access right underneath, but can guess at it being a certain speedfit pipe as I can hear dripping from a certain area.
its not protected in anything, Im wondering if theres an easy way of attaching a new pipe and pulling ot...
Which out of these 2 is cheapest. I always thought polyplumb was cheaper but I seem to be paying a fortune for it. I can even buy 15mm elbows cheaper at b&q.
hi, so we had tried to fit an isolation valve into copper pipe that came close from the mains supply, but i'm not proud of it. we had to leave the mains water valve at half pressure or else the fittings would leak/pop off.
It was my first attempt at plumbing and i assumed i could easily move the...
Hi
I had to take the plinth boards off in the kitchen to install a new oven and at the back I saw this speedfit fitting.
It’s a 10mm fitting on the central heating loop, and it feeds the kitchen radiator. I think it’s the flow feed, not the return. To me it looks like at may have been burnt...
