Hi,
I'm planning to plumb in some new rads with 15mm polypipe. I want to chase the pipes into the walls to hide them (I'll cap them before plastering over them) but I'm a struggling a bit with the best way to route them (or indeed whether there is any regulation on where they can be routed through the wall).
The rads are under windows so I can't do a drop straight down so I wondered if I could do a "sweeping" chase with one pipe down each side of the window and sweep around to horizontal so it can fit into angled rad valves?
Any ideas and, out of interest, how would this be done in copper if you don't have any joints in the walls?
Thanks,
J
