I want to bury some 25mm plastic conduit in the wall to allow me to run the flow and return between the downstairs and upstairs, obviously it would mean the pipe is unsupported through the length about 2m. It will be supported top and bottom. Would this be okay.
 
Probably fine on copper or plastic plumbing pipes.
I have run 15mm copper pipes inside 20mm electric conduit on jobs.
 
Sorry, I wondered had I imagined that Hep was mentioned, then I see it was in the title of the thread. :)
Hep inside plastic conduit will be no different than the pipe in pipe Hep really, so should be fine.
 
Make sure the hep pipe is a slack fit inside the conduit.
You need to have the heating pipes with a bit of space around them as risk of noise as they heat and cool and expand & contract.

What type of wall are they going into?
 
as long as you plaster them in it will be fine
 
Be chased into the brick work and plastered over. I will probably put three lots of the 25mm in, never know what I might need to run in the future.
I would still prefer to use protected copper or barrier pipe.
 
Ohhhhh. Ok. For some reason I thought that it was normal plastic?. Sorry my bad.:oops::oops:

I was stupid enough not to check the position of the pipes under the tiles when installing a toilet and drilled right through the center of a 16 mm copper water pipe. I exposed the pipe by removing a ~30cm section of the plastic sleeve and a ~10 cm section of the pipe around the hole. Several...
