Discuss Shower valve advice - which 1/2 adapters should I use? in the DIY Plumbing Forum area at PlumbersForums.net

Hi all

I'm in middle of my bathroom renovation and about to connect up the shower valve. Thus far I've run all copper but would you recommend I use soldered to 1/2 adapters in to the valve or compression fitting to 1/2?

Obviously I'd need to pre-solder the adapter before installing the 1/2 to the valve. I got these adapters from tool station (for trade range), there's a silver band around the centre, is this some kind of pre-flux? It wasn't mentioned in the description. Some appear to have a few gashes in the wall as well which is a bit disconcerting. Cheers.
