The warning Yesterday my wife reported strange wet areas in some of the kitchen cabinets. I tracked it down to the flexible pipes feeding a Smiths kickspace heater leaking and the water being vaporised by the heat only to condense in and around the cabinets above.
This heater is about 4 years old and the flexible supply pipes came with it in the box. I telephoned the manufacturers this morning and was immediately offered replacement pipes for free due to them having had "a bad batch" at the time ours was shipped. So beware, if you have Smiths kick space heaters anywhere you may have a problem brewing.
The question. Apparently the replacement pipes will not have isolation vales fitted as the old ones did. I need these on the heater end as it is not possible to connect to the central heating pipes under the kitchen cabinets with the heater in place. Not only that but due to limitations of space I would prefer push fit connectors as were fitted to the original. Can anyone recommend a reliable brand of push fit isolation/service valves?
