Which manufacturer

[shneld]

m8 its your house do it right once and for all use copper, would u use aluminium twin and earth like they used to make once or copper for wiring?

I wouldn't use aluminium as materials have developed and copper is superior, using aluminium would just be taking a step back in time.

Would you not say that plastic pipe & push fit fittings is a result of technology improving or changing?

I am sawing towards copper, but am trying to convince myself plastic is ok lol

Thing is, 30M of 22mm copper is £147, 25M of BPEX (FloPlast) is £30, big difference aint it

you have to take the cost of fittings into consideration as well,that pushes plastic up and in any case the extra cost is insignificant in relation to installing a top quality system

If you go plastic,poly plumb or hep,do not try to go cheap on plastic or you really will be sorry

As most,I would go with copper
