Pushfit Isolator for Central Heating

ragj195 · 28 Sep 2015

I needed to isolate some of the central heating while installing some new rads so I stuck a couple of 15mm pushfit isolator valves on the flow and return. I've just read that they can only be used to a max of 65C. Should I rip the floor board up and remove them and what would be the central heating equivalent I should replace them with?

Thanks Rich

Rip them out.

They will pop. Spectacularly.

Seen it happen lots of times. Several in the same house within weeks of the last.

Take them out and use straight push fit connectors as opposed to isolators
