Polypipe vs copper for CH plumbing

[Dan Robinson]

Properly fitted and tested is no guarantee.

Well it is.

Isn't it.

Because the manufacturer's guarantee them.

Pillock.

Tell that to some poor sod who has a leak under his floor and no access to the joints.
But then you don't care.

 

[Dan Robinson]

But it is a guarantee isn't it?

YOU said it WASN'T a guarantee.

More factual errors from the forum idiot.

 

[Norcon]

Talking to your self now dom.

 

[Dan Robinson]

Nice try... but you'll have to try harder to dodge your inadequacies.


Significant guarantees there eh Nobby? - more than any joint you're likely to bodge together to fill the drinkers on the farm.

 

[Norcon]

Your inadequacies have been laid bare.
Burying pushfit under concrete.

 

[Dan Robinson]

But they aren't all going to leak and they are covered by significant guarantees.

Which YOU said wasn't the case.


Come on Nobby, you have been embarrassed enough this evening. In several fronts.

Please give up and jog along back to the GD forum.

What goods a guarantee when you have to rip your floor up?

Will the sales rep from polyplumb fire up the jack hammer?

Technically of course I didn't bury them. The builder did. I don't tend to handle general building materials outside of making good the odd flue hole.

However, they are in my house and I know where they are. Both of them.

No, his company will pay for the required works. Instead of go ogling Tonga you don't really understand, start off with the basics, like the term "guarantee".

Polyplumb recommend using Jib1 and Jib3.
So I don't see how they will accept responsibility for a plumbers incompetence.

From speedfit....

"Where it is deemed necessary to install fittings in a solid wall or floor, they should be installed in an access box with a removable lid."

 

[Dan Robinson]

And what of the first floor?

 

[Norcon]

First floor round my way on new builds are mostly concrete.
