How deep should plastic pipe be chased into a internal brick wall with plaster finish?


I have plastic 15mm JG PEX pipe which I want to chase into wall.


How deep should I make the chase.
Do I also need to sleeve the pipe. If so what with?
Do I cement the chase or just plaster?

you can chase the brick/block upto 1/3 of its thickness on the vertical plane and 1/6 of its thickness on the horizontal plane.

if possible put the pipe inside a length of 22mm speedfit or rap it in the tube type celafelt lagging. (rap laggging in a tube)

Do not bury plastic pipe in the wall it will cause problems
