I concentrate on boiler and heating repair but I'm doing a first fix on a kitchen to keep a landlord sweet. The kitchen is a total rip-out and is back to bare bricks. I'm fitting a new combi boiler. Just want someone to confirm if it's ok to run the hot & cold in 10mm plastic to the kitchen sink. Its about 6metres including elbows. Your advice will be appreciated please.
 
I recently did a kitchen with a small sink and a typical normal sink , I did the small one in 10 mm and it works a treat but did the big sink in 15 mm . All down to pressure and flow obviously .
 
I’ve always wondered why this isn’t common practice on any sink in the U.K.... obviously the pipe runs would have to be adhered to, but as always it’s the cowboys that screw it up for everyone else.

Because someone would connect it up to a bath :D
