Plastic Polybutylene Pipes - Polypipe, Flofit, Hep2O, JG Speedfit, Pipelife?
Pipes not fittings, are they all much the same, does it just come down to price, do people have preferences and why?

 

[SimonG]

I have a preference. Copper.

Hep 2o pipe is all I use if the job dictates it simply because its more flexible , never really had a problem with it the fittings are demountable and readily available, Hep offers a 50 year warranty but I bet if you tried to make a claim it wouldn't be easy, most failures are poor fitting practices.

I dont use much but would go down the hep / speedfit route , I have never mixed a fitting .

Hep is a pain to cut and sometimes the fittings can’t be a pita to insert and remove

but the pipe is more flexible than the rest
