Hi
Anyone got any tips for laying our 20mm PE-RT underfloor heating pipes into aluminium spreader plates (200 mm centres)?
Specifically I'm after advice on how to get the pipe to be more flexible. The pipe is really stiff and very difficult to get it to fit around the bends.
I'm going to try heating the pipe with a heat gun on low setting tomorrow, but wondered if anyone has any other tips.
The pipes have been sat outside in a box for months and now it's getting very cold I think maybe the pipes have gone rigid?
