Tubes of various materials have different precautions. IFAN introduces its advantages and disadvantages. This is our Facebook Website:www.facebook.com

PPR tube is cost-effective and environmentally friendly

As a new type of water pipe material, PPR pipe has unique advantages, it can be used as both cold water pipe and hot water pipe. The interface of the PPR pipe adopts hot-melt technology, and the pipes are completely fused together, so once the installation and pressure test is passed, it will not age and leak like the aluminum-plastic pipe for a long time.

Advantages:

Moderate price, stable performance, heat and heat preservation, corrosion resistance, a smooth inner wall without scaling, a safe and reliable pipeline system, no penetration, and a service life of up to 50 years.

Disadvantages:

Construction technology has high requirements, and special tools and professionals are required for construction to ensure the safety of the system.

Copper pipes are corrosion-resistant and can be sterilized

It is the first-class product in the water pipe. There are two ways of copper pipe interface: ferrule and welding. The ferrule is the same as the aluminum-plastic pipe, which has the problem of aging and water leakage for a long time. Most copper pipes are installed by welding. Welding means that the interface is welded together by oxygen so that it can never leak like PPR water pipes. Because of its high price, it is generally used more in high-end apartments or villas.

Advantages:

High strength, stable performance, sterilization, and not easy to corrode.

Disadvantages:

High price and difficult construction. In cold winter, it is easy to cause heat loss, large energy consumption, and high use cost.

Aluminum-plastic pipes are easy to age and leak

Aluminum-plastic pipe used to be a popular pipe material on the market. Because of its lightweight, durability, and convenient construction, its bendability is more suitable for use in home decoration. In Guangdong and Shanghai, where the decoration concept is relatively new, the aluminum-plastic pipe has gradually lost its market and belongs to the eliminated product.

Advantages:

The price is relatively cheap, it can be bent arbitrarily, the surface is smooth, and the construction is convenient.

Disadvantages:

Easy aging, many hidden dangers in use, short service life, practice has proved that after one year of use, the leakage of the pipeline connection is very easy to occur.

Galvanized pipe is easy to block and easy to pollute

When you open a water pipe that has not been used for a long time, you suddenly find out that it is “yellow” water. This kind of thing is very easy to happen in the galvanized iron pipes in the old house. Such “yellow” water is also harmful to the human body. Four ministries and commissions including the Ministry of Construction of China have also issued a document stating that galvanized pipes will be banned from 2000 and galvanized pipes have been rarely used in cold water pipes in newly built communities.

Advantages:

Complete varieties, many pipe fittings.

Disadvantages:

It is an outdated product prohibited by the state, which is easy to corrode and rust, resulting in poor water flow and easy to cause water pollution.
