Key Features
- Corrosion Resistant: uPVC does not rust or corrode, making it ideal for water supply.
- Smooth Internal Surface: Reduces friction losses and prevents scaling.
- Lightweight & Easy to Install: Compared to metal fittings.
- Non-toxic & Safe: Suitable for potable water.
- Durability: Long service life in plumbing and HVAC systems.
Installation Guidelines
- Preparation:
- Ensure pipes are cut square and edges are smooth.
- Clean pipe ends and fitting sockets.
- Joining Method:
- Use solvent cement (PVC adhesive) for secure bonding.
- Apply primer (if recommended) before cement.
- Insert pipe into fitting socket with a quarter-turn twist for even distribution.
- Curing:
- Allow joint to set for at least 15–30 minutes before handling.
- Full curing may take 24 hours depending on temperature/humidity.
- Testing:
- Pressure test the system before commissioning.
Usage in HVAC & Water Supply
- HVAC Systems: Used to branch ducted water lines for cooling/heating systems.
- Hot & Cold Water Supply: Suitable for domestic and commercial plumbing networks.
- Drainage & Ventilation: Commonly applied in sewerage and vent piping.
- Reducing Function: Connects larger 4″ main line to a 3″ branch line efficiently.
⚠️ Considerations & Limitations
- Temperature Limit: uPVC SCH-40 is not suitable for very high-temperature fluids (>60°C). For higher temperatures, CPVC or PPR-C is preferred.
- Pressure Limit: Designed for moderate pressure; not ideal for industrial high-pressure steam or chemical lines.
- Proper Adhesive Use: Incorrect solvent cement application can lead to leaks.
