B. The Advantages of Practo – PPR Water Supply System are:
– High flow rate, light weight and smooth inner surface
– Great stability and reliability at higher temperature
– Non-toxic, chemical resistant and absolutely has no rust release
– Ease of fitting and ability to maintain water pressure.
– Low installation cost as it doesn’t need any kind of solvent cement compared
to PVC
C. Installation Tips
– Use cutters with a sharp, pointed blade for smaller sizes
– Remove any debris left from cutting the pipe
– Wipe the end of the pipe from inside and outside with clean cloth to remove
dirt, grease and/or moisture
– Plug in the iron early, as it will take 5-10 minutes to heat up.
– When the iron is hot, insert the pipe and fitting into the iron.
– Pushing both sides at the same time, immediately insert the pipe into the
fitting. Push the pipe until the rings meet within the welding time.
– Once the rings meet, you will have 5 to 15 seconds to make adjustments to
the alignment, depending on the pipe size. Do not twist during adjustment,
alignment, or insertion.

 

About Banninger

 

Banninger For Outdoor Applications – UV-Resistant system for warm and cold water supply 

While the green PP-R pipes and fittings are designed to be used indoor, we developed an ultraviolet resistant water supply system to avoid the corrosion of the plumbing system under high temperatures and all weather conditions that might affect it.

Banninger – UV pipes consist of well-established four layers;

  1. The first-outer layer is coated with a black UV-resistant material to ensure pipe long-term durability and prevent PP-R material from expansions and deformities.
  2. The second layer of PP-R Polypropylene Copolymer, which is ideally integrated within the pipe structure to retain high water flow.
  3. The unique third layer of absolute fiber/aluminum provides high rigidity and stability that prevents outside air from infiltration into the pipe.
  4. The forth-inner layer is made of PP-R where the smooth surface is in direct contact with hot and cold water to guarantee you a safer and better way of water transportation.

Advantages of Black UV Pipes:

  • Linear expansion coefficient is only 20-30% of ordinary PP-R pipe, completely resolves the stretching problem of common plastic pipe.
  • Enhances pipe rigid, prevents droop down phenomenon, and also reduces the density and number of supporting points, thus cuts down the total cost of installation.
  • Higher pressure-resistant level and longer working life under usual vibration.
  • Better high-temperature resistance, and obvious energy-saving effect; used in water heating system, the normal temperature is up to 95-100 degrees, it not only increases the medium temperature.
  • Solves the oxygen permeability of the pipeline, the inner surface is non-toxic, fine sealing, and sphagnum will not appear. The middle layer of the pipe completely prevents outside air from infiltration into pipe inside, thereby inhibits algae growth, and maintains fresh pure water.
