Are JG Speed fit fittings compatible with most 15mm plastic pipe?
I want to swap out the tees and replace with JG Speedfit. Mainly because I'm not happy with the Flexi hose going into the back of the shower mixer valve. I want to remove the Flexi, fit a new one with an 90 elbow on the end, from which a short length of pipe will feed the mixer valve. I thought this would be a lot easier than trying to undo the compression fittings attached to the original tees. And easier than trying to get any new compression fittings tight.

Ignore the disconnect flexis in the pictures. The photos are from the installation of the other mixer valve on the other shower. The showers are back to back. The hole that you can see in the pictures was made when I replaced the other shower 4 years ago.
It's the Flexis currently connected that I need to deal with now


What's your thoughts?
I'm also worried about the how to stop the short length of pipe pushing back into 5he void when connecting the valve. I have one idea, but value your expertise
