By plastic do you mean Hep pipes? There is no need to lag this, complete waste of time...it is a barrier pipe...even better protected from the elements than copper with lagging on it
You don't lag a pipe to protect the pipe; You lag it to prevent the water inside the pipe for freezing.By plastic do you mean Hep pipes? There is no need to lag this, complete waste of time...it is a barrier pipe...even better protected from the elements than copper with lagging on it
Im talking about barrier pipe. I never use it unless i need to (awkward area under a floor etc) as I hate the stuff and i dont trust the fittings. I dont used push fit fittings when I do have to use it, I use compression but I certainly dont lag it.
I have seen hep pipe with compression fittings blow off in last winter pipe expands and fitting pop off not good
Barrier pipe lads...with 3 liners...you arent going to convince me
