Hello, I plan to run JG plastic pipe to my rads (all new system to existing combi). I assumed I would run 15mm up the walls and T on to the 22mm feeds but yesterday I had 2 people suggest different pipes to use, one said 10mm, another 15mm. Its a bungalow with 8 radiators. Any suggestions/advice appreciated.
Many thanks
 
If using plastic I’d be tempted to use 15mm, because the bore will reduce slightly with the inserts. That said if it’s all new 10mm probably won’t be an issue - I have it in my new build property.

I always found Hep pipe much more flexible and the fittings more compact and easier to work with.
