Whilst I have replumbed and fitted several kitchens and several bathrooms I have not used a soldered joint more than a few times (30 years ago). Most of the joints have been under units or in rear of units where access with a blowlamp in case of leaks would have been problematical and so I have used compression joints (and the odd push on).
I will be installing a thermostatic mixer onto a stud wall. Probably copper pipes down and elbows with 1/2 inch bsp to suit mixer.
I suppose that these joints are best soldered. As a rank amateur with regard to soldered joints what is the best course and equipment.
Should I use endflow or solder ring? Cheapish blowtorch adequate for a one off job.
(I might just get a professional to do those two joints as I have someone coming in to remove an oil tank but should really do it myself..)
