Hi Everyone
I am thinking of installing a central heating system in my house (i'm all electric, trying to get away from those pesky electric companies!!) The problem is all my floors are concrete.
I was thinking of using 22mm plastic pipe as the flow and return pipe to the boiler and T ing of with 10mm plastic to the radiators.. the 22mm pipe will be in the loft and the 10mm drop down to the radiators in the wall. I intend to put the 10mm pipes into another pipe so i can remove them if needed.( I am using 10mm because of the depth of the channel i need to cut into my walls)There will be 8 radiators.
Is there any problems using 22mm reduced to 10mm
Will this have any effect on the boiler

Cheers :?: :?: :?:
 
No prob at all, that is how most new houses are plumbed.

I don't see why you need to sleeve the pipes though, why would you want to get them out again?
