Hi guys...have done a search before posting on here for info on this, but found nothing.
We have almost decided to use plastic speedfit-type tubing for putting in a completely new central heating system in the house we just bought (very old very run down and at the moment, uninhabitable 1900's 3 bed end terrace)
I say almost decided, because plastic tubing is something we have never used before, always used copper in the past (this is not the first house we have completely re-plumbed)
We've looked on loads of websites for info on speedfit/hep2o etc, and everyone seems to give it the thumbs up, and it does seem a lot cheaper, not to mention quicker and easier to use than the copper....so, my question is, what do you guys think of pushfit plumbing? Are there any pitfalls that other websites don't tell you about?
...would REALLY appreciate you guys' opinions!! cheers!
PS I should say, it will be 'traditional' sort of central heating with radiators, not underfloor heating.
