Combi boilerAre you on a sealed system?? Also as the pipes heat and cool they expand and contract this is equally disturbing to the o rings as the pipes will move. Albeit fractionally but it still moves

AND taped up so any potential lime cannot pin hole the copper
So it’s a sealed system at a minimum of 1bar rising to 2-2.5 when hot. Up to youCombi boiler
You've lost me on that one I'm afraid! In my mind the chances of one of the O rings popping is relatively small. Just want him to get on with the rest of the job. We're in a Victorian property, it's amazing to me all the little bodges and quick fixes hidden under the floorboards, the ceilings and walls! You can get too stressed over every minute detail of a job and it just ends up with a Soded off workmanSo it’s at a sealed system at a minimum of 1bar rising to 2-2.5 when hot. Up to you
Cheers, I'll be happy when it's all in and there are no leaks. Thanks again for the guidance.You have to do what you think is best mate. We are only giving you recommendations on how we think that it should be done. But as long as you are happy.
Just bare that in mind if one of the John guest push fit fitting leak later on.Cheers, I'll be happy when it's all in and there are no leaks. Thanks again for the guidance.
In my honest opinion, I wouldn’t be concealing a speedfit joint. The copper to the radiator needs to be protected from corrosion and movement (clipped).
The water regulations state the following:
No pipe shall be embedded in any wall or solid floor without meeting certain conditions.
No pipe shall be installed in a way it may become unduly warmed.
