Flexible Copper in boiler run

Hello -
Looking for advice - is it safe to use flexible copper for a 3' section of a boiler run? It's 3/4" copper and my boiler is ~119,000 BTU. If so, do you recommend solder joints or compression?
Thanks!

Yeah
Its acceptable to use soft copper for fitting baseboard etc. Usually the rolled copper is at least L copper.
I never use compression fittings . I always solder with 95/5
