Why PPR Pipe is the First Choice for Modern Homes?

In modern homes and commercial buildings, the water supply pipework system is one of the key installations for ensuring safe and healthy water usage. Different types of water supply pipe have their own advantages and disadvantages in different application scenarios due to their unique material properties and installation requirements. In this article, we will discuss several common types of water supply pipes, and analyse in depth why more and more customers tend to choose PPR (random copolymer polypropylene) water supply pipes, and how to correctly select high-quality PPR water supply pipes.

First,Main types of water supply pipes

1. Metal pipes: including steel pipes, stainless steel pipes, copper pipes and so on. These pipes have high strength and good corrosion resistance, but the cost is high, and the weight is large, complex installation.

2. Plastic pipes: such as PVC-U (rigid polyvinyl chloride), PEX (cross-linked polyethylene), PB (polybutylene) and PPR pipes. This type of pipe is lightweight and easy to install, the price is relatively affordable, but there are limitations in the temperature and pressure tolerance.

3. Composite pipe: a combination of metal and plastic advantages, such as aluminium-plastic composite pipe, both with a certain degree of pressure resistance, but also the flexibility and corrosion resistance of the plastic pipe, but its connection is more special, the need for professional tools to operate.

Second, why choose PPR water supply pipe?

With the progress of science and technology and changes in market demand, PPR water supply pipe has gradually become the mainstream of the market because of its unique advantages. Here are a few main reasons:

At the same time, PPR water pipe in the production process to strictly control the content of heavy metals, to ensure the health of water quality.

2. Easy to install: PPR water pipe adopts heat fusion connection, no additional connectors and seals in the installation process, easy and fast installation. In addition, the light weight of PPR water pipe, handling and installation are relatively easy.

3. High temperature resistance: PPR water pipe has good high temperature resistance, can withstand higher temperatures, will not be deformed or aging due to high temperature. This makes the PPR water pipe in the hot water supply system has a wide range of applications.

4. Strong pressure resistance: PPR water pipe has high pressure resistance, can withstand greater pressure, not easy to burst and other safety issues. Therefore, PPR water pipe is suitable for a variety of water pressure conditions of the water supply system.

5. Long service life: PPR water pipe has a long service life, under normal use conditions, its service life can reach more than 50 years. At the same time, PPR water pipe has good anti-aging properties, not easy to appear aging cracks and other problems.

Third, how to select high-quality PPR water supply pipe?

In the face of a wide range of PPR pipe brands on the market, consumers are often confused. The following points can help you make a wise choice:

1. Select high-quality products: Priority is given to products with their own brands, which usually have a stricter quality control system and after-sales service guarantee.

2. Appearance check: The surface of high-quality PPR pipe is smooth and even, with consistent colour and no obvious impurities or bubbles. In addition, the manufacturer will be clearly marked on the wall of the pipe product information, such as specifications, production date.

3. Physical performance tests: If conditions permit, you can test the quality of the pipe through some simple experiments, such as bending test (to see whether it is easy to break), combustion test (observe the flame colour and smoke) and so on.

4. Certificates: Check whether the product has passed national or international standards, such as ISO quality management system certification, health permit approvals, etc., which are important guarantees of product quality.

5. After-sales service: Understand the services provided by the supplier, including installation guidance, maintenance support, etc. A good after-sales experience can make you feel more at ease with the product.

When building or renovating a water supply system, it is important to choose the right water supply pipe, the majority of users increasingly favours PPR water supply pipe because of its excellent comprehensive performance.
