25mm tails maintenance free joint

[joehat]

Do they exist, I have just inspected a job and seen 25mm tails extended under floor boards in standard Henley 25mm tails block, can you get 25mm maintenance free joints? It would this have to be made accessible eg hatch or something Ect? Which I still feel is poor as I've seen them carpeted over all the time.

Crimps. With supplementary insulation over it. And then inside an enclosure as there will be no mechanical protection.

New tails is really a better option.

I'm not sure if you can get them or not but all maintenance free accessories should have a maintenance free logo (MF in a circle) on them.

I agree but after some other sparky extended them , I don't think the customer wants to pay for all the extra as its a 10ish meter run.
And probs a good half a day labor

Do wholesalers stock 25mm crimps ect

A carpet hardly makes them inaccessible. As long as you know where the connections are. You've already found them, so note it on the report for the next guy - it could be you in 10 years time.

I've posted about this before, the plumbing regs (WRAS) don't consider things such as ceramic tiles, plasterboard, laminate flooring or basically anything you're likely to encounter in a domestic setting as a barrier to accessibility.
