Chasing Speedfit into solid wall

Look up conduit pipe and boxing. Might help you. I looked up a few other threads for you and noticed this was mentioned by several people.
Hope that helps

 

I dunno. I just paint

Be interesting to see what the men say women eh?
Errrrm kiab?
Are you busy?

As far as I can tell Patrick you use conduit, clip it securely, box or plasterboard and then skim over. The pipe would then only have skim round it where it enters the wall.
But DO NOT do this without speaking to somebody on here who knows what they are doing first they will be along shortly I hope

 

102 views so far Patrick and I'm the only one that stopped by to try and help!

What's the matter with them all ???

 

I, personally, wouldn't sink any type of joint in a wall, preferable to use copper and a bend imo.

 

Ooh dear but the pic says its already in.
Good man rulland least he's got proper help now

 

Why not plastic though rulland? If conduit, clipped securely and boxed or plasterboard?
Just curious as to why you say that.

 

And Patrick ? What made you go with plastic over copper?
Or was that something the plumber chose
What was his reasons?


All good stuff for other peeps viewing threads in the future

 

Speedfit out of sight and copper in sight seems to be the general consensus
So do you put copper into the plastic pipe then so its copper on show.
Keep seeing "don't fit chrome to speedfit" oooh why's that then?
Its great fun this is

 

God I miss dev he hasn't been seen for days at least he teaches me stuff, he's nice like that

 

It is normal bit posh having a towel rail but I can forgive that.
Yeah they do rave about plastic. I agree.
But in sight it will be what? Outside where its on view not plastic surely?

 

I mean nobody fits a beautiful posh towel rail with plastic coming off it?

 

God its like watching paint dry coz I really am watching paint dry
Oil paint I could be here for dayyyyys

 

Trunking

You mean white plastic trunking ???

 

"In- wall" What's is this "in-wall"? That makes no sense to me.
IN the wall is already plastic is it not?
Do you mean along the wall? Where peeps can see it? Or going into the wall? As in joining copper to the plastic?
How is a girl ever to learn with all this lingo going on.

 

If there aren't any joints then a joint can't leak is my opinion.
I've seen speed fits and compressions leak after a period of time, I know they shouldn't, but heh, why take the risk, even if it is minimal.

 

Hence the boxing and not cementing them in
So I'm right yeah?

Sort of I'm right sort of yeah ? Even a little bit yeah would be good

 

Well he hasn't got copper with no joints!!!

He's got plastic.

It'll be grand patrick no worries
