Home made manifold

[alexbetts]

hi guys

just wondered wot your thoughts were on making a manifold out of 22mm copper and 22mm 15mm 22mm tees, to run individual circuits to each rad. ive seen a few that you can buy but are around £60ea.

ive got 13 Rads to run in total.

Any feed back appreciated. or alternatives

Easier, neater and cheaper to buy one probably.

 

[alexbetts]

£60 each id need 2 unless youve seen them cheaper anywhere else

 

[Dan Robinson]

Add up the fittings, vents, valves clips, time and then factor in the appearance and I would still buy one unless I needed 1¼ or bigger.

Might be worth looking at the price of doing it in steel rather than copper.

No labour costs and your own time.

Why not just run the 22 and tee off for the rads ?
