What the hell is this pipe?

[southcoastboile]

Hello. Please could someone help me out with this pipe. We have showed it to 3 local merchants who suggest using other plastic pipe that's not the same make. I don't want to do this its on an unvented system and if it blows off its going to cost me a bomb so that's out the question but no one seems to know what the pipe is or were I can buy it.

Poly fit.

Hep2o will swap.

Are you sure it will be okay? I'm always worried about mixing and matching fitting makes. If it blows off I won't have a leg to stand on for the sake of a £100 job?

 

[Chalked]

Will be fine

Use a compression fitting then. All manufacturers will accept compression as a transition between different brands.

As above i'd use a good quality deep compression fittings to change from one to the other but you'll need the inserts for that

As longs the correct insert has been used.. JG don't allow there super seal ones, it has to be the rigid ones

Don't John Guest say there speedfit fittings can be used on any pipe? Even if you get the correct fitting and it blows off, you wont have a leg to stand on and you will be claiming through your insurance anyway.

All pipes are the same od you can use any fitting with any pipe just use the correct inserts
