Use a push-fit system and avoid the solvent-weld stuff. Used to have
solvent-welded plastic pipe in the old house and it was a pain in the
backside. You have to leave it 24 hours to cure and the slightest bit of
water during that period destroys the joint. Had no water for three days
once because water kept dribbling back and knackering the joint.

Hi
I know this is slightly of topic but ..

Has anyone used plastic pipe for their home plumbing, ie something
like polypipe, as opposed to copper and soldering etc. ?

Just after views on whether it is any good, bad expirences etc.
