Radiators/towel rails

**sibs** · 08-10-2008

Hi all
I know this is a tiling forum

but does anyone know if I can use flexible copper pipe to join a towel radiator to the existing valves?

DONT SEE WHY NOT AS LONG AS THE FITMENTS ARE THE SAME.

Do you mean like ripple hose? (Copper) or flexihose

PS: there is actually a plumbing forum as well !

its ok sorted it with some 45 degree end feeds and some copper pipe.... was a very awkward angle to get

well done sibs,as pete says it would have looked a mess.

Wonder if it was the micro-bore copper pipe

I personally like connecting them with chrome plated copper.

I form the pipe to the right shape so that there are no joints above the floorboards. When you need 2 or more radii in the same length of pipe it can get tricky but practice gets you there
