barrier pipe

[whyme!]

can someone confirm, if i use it with the inserts, will this reduce the flow compared to 15mm copper?

The bore is narrower, because the walls are thicker, but plastic can be run in longer lengths without coupling, and in slower bends, and the material is slipperier, so who really knows what the net difference is? I certainly haven't tested it.

 

[whyme!]

thanks, certainly easier to use, but i just have my douts with this new push fit gear. do the inserts not reduce the bore still further?

Doubts about what aspect(s)?

do the inserts not reduce the bore still further?

With Speedfit it looks to me as though they would, because they're plastic, but the Hep2o stainless steel ones are very thin and feather into the pipe wall.

bore is reduced still further with inserts, only a little tho.

Has any one asked Hep2o or Speed fit for a definitive answer?

Or

better than that, ask Doitall to comment.
