Yes. Use the correct insert for the pipe you're using though.

The makers say no. Best fit good quality brass compression fittings as pushfit can be big trouble.
Not what the makers say.
Yes, but use the correct inserts for the pipe.
Since when have *you* taken any notice of that? ISTR that the makers say
*don't* use a hacksaw to cut the pipe!
Generally speaking, yes, although I prefer no to mix brands unless I have to. If in doubt you can use compression (with inserts) for the transition from one brand to the other.
You are an effing idiot...amateur. Again ....Not what the makers say.
At your won risk. All makes say tolerances are different.
Plank, Generally speaking no. What Hepworth said on this very forum..."Hepworth do not recommend mixing Hep2O with other manufacturers pipe or fittings as we can only guarantee dimensional tolerances and quality control of our products."
