If you wanted to fit quality tube insulation you'd be using armaflex.

Is that any better than the 25mm climoflex stuff. I usually tape up edges with foil tape as well.

Thought it was more.
0.033 W/(m • K) at 0ºC for class O armaflex and 0.034 W/(m • K) at 0ºC for climaflex.
Looks like the difference is negligible.

Not worth the price difference then, at nearly twice the price. Thanks for that. Seems it has its worth where there are difficult hard to reach corners as it bends.

He's certainly Gas Safe registered - that must count for something!
 
That means he has passed an assessment on safe working with gas.

Not that he is going to do an honest and good job!
