Hi im moving a toilet, sink and rad in our cloak room. The toilet and sink I’ve no issue with but the heating pipes are causing me sleepless nights. Despite numerous attempts me soldering skilll are awful. I was wondering if I could use either push fit or compression (wrapped in tape so not in contact with the screed) to join on to the existing rad feed. Then run plastic to the rad (no joins) stick 2 90’s push or compression to make me tails. I know it should all ideally be done with soldered joints but am not confident getting a good join. First pic is of the new rad in position second is the existing heating pipe. Distance between then about 1400mm

thanks in advance.

Honestly, get a plumber in to do this bit properly - you can do the rest of the install. It won’t cost too much, especially if you create the chase in the screed ( maybe after consulting with plumber).
