Depends on what make of pushfit / plastic pipe. Wont be rated for temp/pressure unvented cylinder gives. Saw a few on sites ( was sent to fix) and a certain manufacturers pipe was used but at the temp stored and pressure it can build upto ,the fittings blew off. Was sent to fit copper to underfloor. And also fit copper for blow offs.
