In the meantime, there may be some who might experience the same problem. They certainly wouldn't get any help from arseholes and smart remarks wouldn't be much help either.

Is you village missing someone?

Well if you actually bothered to read the thread you would've noticed that I actually offered the OP helpful advice which you actually confirmed......smartarse. You would've also noticed the date of the original post. I was just pointing this out. You're the one that got all thick about it.

Master and commander

those push fit fittings are generally not reccomended for inaccesible areas such as under floors or within walls - they have a greater chance of leaks developing over time. However they are fine for accesible places like on the connections to taps or exposed pipework.
Compression joints are considered a better job.

Putting PTFE or boss white on a compression fitting is pointless - the threads are not the sealing part, its the compression of the olive that does the sealing. They are for threaded fittings like gunbarrel etc. Anyone who uses tape/paste on a comp joint just goes to sho they lack a detailed knowledge of how the joint works.

Jeez, you go away for a few days and a dead thread comes back to live and ends up a bitchfest. Thread closed, over and out!
