Plastic joints next to boiler

[RRRRRR]

My plumber has used plastic push fit joints within the metre or so distance where copper, not plastic, pipe is recommended on the outflow. Can anyone reassure me that plastic joints are exempt from the rule? Thanks.

Establish the manufacturer of the fittings and ask them. Plus different boiler manufacturers have different ideas on this so ask them too.
