Hello - Am fitting a new bath , the type with taps in the middle and not at the end . I need to know if I can join these new fangled "pushfit and flexi pipe,s" straight on to the 22mm copper supplies.
Its a distance of about 3 ft ,Ive only ever worked with copper pipe most of my life.
If I can,t I,ll just make up some pipes and solder the job, but if I can - Whitch brand / type / make do you reccomend , and whats your advice /warnings etc on fitting copper to plastic. ?? any help gratefully received.

I would not use flexi's,they have spilt to many tears,as taps centre you could fit normal compression fittings with copper olives from taps and use plastic pipe and join on to existing pipe work
or as you are capable of soldering,run in copper,like good old days :-P
