Question for the plumbers among us
Is it possible to get a coil of 15mm copper pipe around 30m long?

This is for a mate in Spain who is installing solar hot water system (the kit is going away from the house on a hill) and would prefer no or at least very few joins in the pipe work. 1999 Defender TD5 110

Not copper it only comes in straight lengths, there are special solar pipe manufactures out there solflex I use and Preinsulated, quality stuff.
Depending on the type of system he has be wary of using plastics as some systems will reach in excess of 300*c

It's microbore that comes in coils and the largest size for that is 10mm.
