Hi Guys and Galls :confused5::confused5:
I am installing a new central heating system with a external oil boiler. I intend to do all the pipe work and let the professionals fit the boiler. My plan is as follows:
22mm Copper pipe to and from the boiler in to the loft up through the chimney Approx 10' run. Copper pipe for water supply
Plastic 22 mm pipe ring main with inserts and compression fittings with copper olives. 22mm - 10mm T's (compression)
Plastic 10mm drops to the radiators buried into the wall. No fittings in the wall. Pipes will be clipped secured.
( do i need to insulate the pipes in the wall and any recommendations)
Auto air release valve at highest point of the system (in loft)
Is it better with inserts and compression fittings (access not a issue) or push fit fittings
Best plastic pipe for the job or are they all the same.
Does any one see any issues with this.
Cheers guys
