Do standard nylon clips creak as heating pipes expand? I want to install all the pipes creak free and any advise will be much appreciated?

You should be ok if you use the correct spacings
15mm is 1.2m horizontally 1.8 vertical
22mm is 1.8m horizontally 2.4m vertical
If notching joists under floor wrap some hair felt round the pipes
 
Thanks, I'm already using hair felt in notched joists, this is running along between the joists on a 6m run, so plenty of expansion. We have full access as the ceilings underneath are down so I can clip at correct intervals if that is then going to be creak free.
