Hello,
I'm in the process of replacing and installing new pipework. The expansion vessel for the combi has failed.
The vessel will be situated below the boiler - the only place I can tap into the 22mm return is near the floor, so I will be piping the vessel from underneath (if that makes sense!).
So I will require a 90 degree elbow into the vessel - I know I can shove a compression in there, but I'm not a fan of those. Prefer to solder. Can I use a 22mm immersion union (I can bend a 90 degree into the 22) and solder that in - or is there a fitting better suited ?
Also worth plumbing a valve into the vessel piping seen as these seem to fail quite often ?!
Cheers
