Ive only once had to replace a section of burst plastic pipe. It was on cold main and about 10 years old. Personally i think it may have been damaged during installation as it was an odd place for it to go.

where do i get a shock arresters and what type should i get.
I also notice that speedfit barrier pipe can be bent round corners with the use of a plastic angled attachement, similar to those used on back of washing machine waste pipe. Are these available for Blue MDPE mains water pipes?

i mate of mine has 2 properties in hull . he rents them out. they are obviuosly in a bad area. when he bought the house the central heating had been ripped out already by the locals"
he put some tenants in. they moved out. a week later the copper pipework was gone. he had refitted and it was stolen yet again house empty and my mate lives in leicester.)
He finally went with plastic and that not been knicked yet, and probably wont be.
mind you its nearly impossible to get nice parallel drops etc as the pipe sags/bends with the heat !!
