For drinking water pipe distribution system, both main and distribution lines Sewer and discharge pipe systems due to its non-metallic nature, the material used is totally resistant to corrosion uPVC pipes do not add any colour, odor or taste to transported fluids As upvc material is flame restardant in the event of a flames are unable to travel it is therefore offer an added safety when used for electrical installations both domestic and industrial
Benefits
Leak proof joints and easy jointing Easy and quick jointing with solvent cement Hygenic for carrying potable water Because of their smooth inner surface uPVC pipes have minimum flow head losses No sediment deposition and hence no reduction in cross-sectional area even after using for several years Resistant to effect of UV rays ro certain limit Availability of full range of fittings for various purposes Self extinguishing Lower material, Transportation and Installation cost uPVC pipes are relatively light their density 1.40-1.46 is one-fifth that of steel pipes. This cuts down handling and transportation costs and facilitates installation when in difficult and remote places
