Thanks, that's a good point I should have considered.
The pipework in this house is...creative...to say the least.
Fortunately we're about to have the gas line redone so it runs on the outside wall around to the boiler, so we can pull out all the exposed internal gas pipes. I won't touch this until that's done, just in case. If it's gas then I guess I can just cut it level once that work is done.If it is water instead of gas, my question still stands. Any thoughts?

Not sure why you’d have a single cold feed there like that, surely it’s gas?

We've got this lttle residual nubbin that comes out of our kitchen floor [previously hidden by cabinets]. We did ask the builders to sort it but they didn't before they levelled the floor, about 15mm thick.
I want to chip the levelling mixture down, cut the pipe, cap it off, and re-level over the top. It's below the level of the system drain, so it's doing to be a real pain to completely empty the system to allow soldering.
Unfortunately I don't actually know where it connects to.
Do we reckon a well-taped and compression-joint-pasted compression stop end would be ok? Or even just one of these fancy push-fits?
