Thought I posted this last night - apologies if I did and it's here twice.
What do people think a safe length of copper pipe between a blow torch and a plastic pushfit fitting is? I'm going to have plastic in the ceilings with a copper stub coming down - the plasterer reckons 6" will be ok. I'm worried that I will stuff up the (inaccessible) fitting when I solder on the rest of the pipe. Am I being paranoid? Will a wet rag around the pipe suffice?
Nutkey was thinking very hard :
6" with a good and wet rag fastened at the top, will prevent the heat travelling up beyond it providing you do the joint in a reasonable time.
