Hope someone can advise whether I need to replace my microbore pipes as i am getting different opinions, and costs from builders.
I have a house with the main runs in 22mm pipe and the tails to the rads in microbore. I plan to build an extension which would have normal pipe sizes in it.
Is there any reason why i should have the microbore pipework changed when the extension is built?
Some of the rads will need to be replaced as they have leaked a bit in the past, and I'm concerned that if the system is flushed there might be some more of that happening.
One builder is telling me i need to change the mocrobore and the other is telling me it isn't a problem. I am a layperson so have no idea who is correct or if they both are!
Thanks
