CPVC pipes are different from polybutylene pipes in two
ways. It is rigid rather than flexible which means that these pipes are only
available in short lengths of 2m or 3m. Secondly these pipes are joined
together
using a solvent welding.
When hot water passes through CPVC pipes, it expands but the
expansion of the pipe will not cause a problem in domestic systems but if the
pipe runs exceeds 10m then it might create problems for the pipe. IN such
scenarios, an expansion loop is created using 90 degree elbows and three 150mm
lengths of pipes.
The manufacturing of CPVC pipes provides an exceptional
range of pipes and fittings to meet almost every requirement.
There are tap and
ball valves connectors, equal and unequal tees, arid provision for connecting
existing fittings, 45° and 90° elbows, stop and gate valves. CPVC is not as
strong as copper or galvanized steel pipes so striking it with a hammer is
strictly not recommended. Since the pipe is flexible, there is a need to
support it more frequently than galvanized or copper pipes.
Tommur piping Industry is a leading supplier of plastic valves.
