I have a Novopress but would use a compression fitting if it's too tight. Sometimes you can get round it by prefabricating the pipe before it goes in, but not always. Do you think the £400 plus VAT was worth the investment?
I originally bought the tool because I was promised a lot of work needing no hot work permit, that never materialised. I’ve used the angled jaws quite a few times lately, but I don’t think the cost is justified to be honest. Until I’m using it at very regular intervals I’d say no. My mate bought his recently and he’s used his continuously and is raving about it. Swings and roundabouts. I would still say the small size of the angled jaws is still too big in a lot of situations. Price definitely needs to come down. 👍🏻
@@usedandreviewedrealworldre4184 Yes I agree by looking at the video, the gap you need is still quite considerable, more than a pipe clip anyway. Thanks so much for taking the time to reply and make the video, its really appreciated.
Second best looking plumber in stoke 😎
Lol probably!

No problem. I’ve tried to make something that’s not influenced by the manufacturer or seller so people get a real world perspective.
