Polyplumb pipe stiffeners

[kozak1968]

Filled up a large heating system yesterday and one of the rad wouldn't heat up and also the towel rail.
Most of the pipework is Polyplumb which I has been installed. I managed to trace the pipework back and found 2 of the black 15mm pipe stiffeners to have no hole in. Half a days work to trace and change. I just hope I haven't missed any on other jobs.

Glad it's not just me that has had an issue with Polyplumb, had one blow off due to a faulty grab ring, held up for 4 mths , pulled rep about it, says they don't get any faulty fittings as they are all checked at the factory, they are not responsible once they leave factory, they have a list of get out clauses longer than the Chanel tunnel, blame the outlet you get it from, the way that you store them, or just blame you.
