And to Sandy's list add "don't drag your pipe across the ground" (scratches in the outer wall may well cause leaks)

Well spotted Jack, a score in the pipe where the O ring sits could cause a weep.

Such a saw loser Cockcorn.

What about the other questions? Or has Google broken again?

Me a "Saw loser"?
Nope.

Indeed, and all part of the manufacturers instructions .


Tell you what Nobcorn. I remember a post where you said I was the bee's knees, and that you were sending me £5000.

I don't need to provide any proof, but I csn assure you it was on the forum somewhere.


I'll look forward to seeing the cheque soon.

Not ideal for DIY though, non " standard " sizes 16mm, 20"" etc plus you need expensive tools to heat and expand the PEX pipe

I work on petrol stations, when we put in the suction pipes we use electro weld. Wish they did this for this kinda thing.

 

[Dan Robinson]

How long have they had o rings in petrol stations?

 

[wcavanagh]

Hehe, funny we do use I rings in the meter seals in the pumps
