What is the best way to clean Hep2O pipes?

Featured Replies

The plaster and decorator have sprayed plaster and some emulsion on the radiator 10mm Hep2O pipe, before I have fitted the radiators.

So what is the best way to clean the pipes so push fittings work?

Thanks

Very hot soapy water for me 

I give it a go. it's plaster and emulsion so hot water should work it.

 

Thanks

It’s scratching that you have to be careful off as this can  lead to leaks around the rubber O rings.

Yup. Twisting action rather than linear strokes etc to avoid such damage.
