what is water made from? Hydrogen and oxygen. Can you see how silly your argument just became?air will penetrate cells, with water it won’t

I can't comment further as I think that you actually believe this so its no longer a jokeit’s true so not silly its why they installed the plastic barrier layer as they found it out and why when you find a non barrier heating system installed its slugged up and normally needs a repipe
Standard Plastic Pipe non barrier allows a very small amount of oxygen (not air) to enter the system
Also this is why mlcp is 100% air and water tight non permeable due to the alu layer
I can't comment further as I think that you actually believe this so its no longer a joke
I don't have any theories about how oxygen atoms pass specifically through plastic heating pipe but nitrogen/hydrogen etc don't.explain your theory then
LOLUnlikely to be many oxygen atoms about as it exists as molecules, not atoms.
how about I suggest that the air is already in the pipe rather than being sucked in.It must gain access one way or the other otherwise plastic pipe makers would hardly spend lots of money developing a barrier type.
As I've said previously though I'm a bit surprised that system pressure don't rise with this and why systems require top up after venting air, assuming no system losses.
What I usually find is that the system doesn't loose pressure, more than it gains Air instead. I don't know the ins and outs but it must be reacting with something in the Air gained with the water in the system to replace the water with Air instead?It must gain access one way or the other otherwise plastic pipe makers would hardly spend lots of money developing a barrier type.
