I have a tank to install.
No static head, about 25m run.
Don’t want any joins.
Check the books - says I should use 6mm pipe.
Cant find a source of 6mm sleeved Copper pipe anywhere.
I guess it’ll be 8mm then.
Can only find max of 25m rolls of 8mm sleeved.
Check distance to tank ...... 26 metres......fek.
Check online again. One or two do 50m of 8mm but it’s silly price (£280 as opposed to £100 for 50m, 10mm)
Does anyone know anywhere where I can get >25m, 8mm copper, sleeved?

Thanks
Davey.
