Good or bad idea - would you like it and be Interested in?

And this is the reason you should use soldered. Cant argue if its suitable for gas then.

No one is debating its viega it’s not marked for gas

It was marked but when you polish pipes and fittings you rub the yellow and green stamps off especially when using brasso.

I am! it doesn’t look like a viega gas tee. This is a viega gas tee. It has yellow dots and says viega on it.

To be really precise even if you used water fittings it would be physically better than a solder fitting. First of all the temperature difference is unique.. the solder will start melting about 185c but the o ring can withstand higher temperature as they are high efficiency o rings same as for gas 630c for 30min your solder is in seconds gone and will cause problems. Furthermore the fittings can withstand higher pressure than soldered joints. 15 -100bar ... let me check 10 properties in UK with 50 bat and I will show you how good your soldering is you cannot beat technology

All irrelevant information again Ron. And why polish something that is already shiny?

I'm debating too and you are wrong. You never dealt with viega fittings but telling me my fittings look like mapress. Common harvest you know you are wrong and that's the bitter truth.
3 different types of fittings

Left to right

Express, mapress and viega
As you can see the green dots disappear over time

Furthermore look how poor Express stamps are hardly visible and once you start polishing it will disappear easily

You dont have to polish do whatever you want you can keep your pipes full of flux and solder it ain't bother me

It's all relevant when it comes to incidents ... but keep talking g about a stamp ... if something goes wrong no one will ask about a stamp but about the right material used!!!

Everything you say about me is true mate. But the difference between me and you is that I would rather listen to people’s advice and learn from my mistakes. But not you, you deviate and try to confuse people with facts that actually have no relevance to the conversation, and yet again you keep posting a picture of a copper tee and not the brass one that you have used in the gas line as a test point which is the one we are all on about. Ignore it all you want mate. I have decided to email viega to get pictures of all of their brass tee’s and have also decided to email them a picture of the one that you have used. If I am wrong I will happily let you know and apologise.

You may be right but you wouldn't be here arguing about a yellow dot. Lol.

I’m happy to be wrong. Would love to see the correct tee you used. Or I would be happy with a part number that you have ordered and I will have a look.
