D2 from 15l under sink heater.

I have a 10m run to get to outside, can this be done in 32mm polypropylene pushfit pipe?

 

[Robooo]

Polypropylene doesn't like hot water I guess. I might be wrong. Sorry can't delete it

 

[Robooo]

This is what I found:
A suitable plastic pipe (such as polypropylene complying with BS EN 1451-1) supported at maximum 300mm intervals, may be used for downstream pipe D2. A maximum distance between clips of 300mm provides adequate support to the pipe D2 in the event of discharge from safety devices

I’m interested in the situation where I terminate outside at ground level, I’m not going into a stack.

 

[Robooo]

If it goes outside you need to take it into a gully or have a cage to protect others. Make sure the pipe facing downwards, use a shoe if you can.

Am I right in thinking though on a 15L water heater it only has a pressure relief not a temp pressure relief?

It isn't a d2 if its only pressure so no length or termination regulations. It would be like your boiler pressure relief

Over 15L it has to have a TPRV as standard

Yes 30l and above has both

No still can be temp as it’s pressure related
