Been visiting a number of new build houses before starting a renovation project and without exception I have noticed that the radiators are connected by plastic pipe that emerges from the wall behind the centre of the radiator and is sort of curved round to the radiator valves. It looks less than 15mm pipe and some of the angles into the valves look a bit dodgy. However it does seem a very neat way of plumbing radiators where there is a solid floor as it solves the problem of runs of surface mounted copper pipes. Has anyone tried this or have alternative ideas for hiding pipe runs where there is a solid floor? Would this method be useable with a combi boiler?
