A guy I work with is going to be installing a central heating system himself (DIYer) although he will be getting a professional in to do the final connections (ie, gas).

He will be using plastic rather than copper pipes.....

What (if any) are the pro's and cons....

Regards in advance.... :wink:
 
One pro is it's quick to install, one con is it does have problems like all plastics do. Also go to plumbing pages and see DRM.s website, he has a story about a boiler that had plastic outlet pipes, and with the wrong circumstances, one of them exploded.
