Marley Equator to Speedfit

[JohnnyD]

Good Morning.....
I am replacing the rads in our house and a couple have plastic pipe to them, just found out it is Marley Equator pipe, and the speed fit inserts are not the correct size, I may be able to force them in, but I can't get leverage on it to do that, if I buy a few Marley inserts, can I then break it out onto a speed fit 90 degree bend? or do I have to stick with the expensive Marley connections also? (PS I already have all the speed fit bits) Its a combi boiler and the central heating loop is around 1-2 BAR.

Thanks

JD

If it's the same od then I would say yes, but if it's different eg 16mm instead of 15 mm sorry to say you will have to use the markley elbows

Hi Shaun, thanks for the reply, it looks like 15mm od according to this...

Use Marley inserts and compression fittings to transition over to speed fit with speedfit inserts. That way you will have a warranty.
If it's under a floor do Marley inserts to speedfit fittings.
