Overview
PPR pipe is joined with hand-held fusion tools, creating joints homogeneous with the pipe. PN20 grades or pipes with an aluminium or glass-fibre middle layer are used for hot water to limit expansion.
PPR suits domestic water in offices, dormitories, factories and hotels. Pipes need UV protection outdoors and supports at the right spacing.
