How to Maintain a PPR Pipeline ？PPR pipe is a very common pipe type, which is widely used due to its advantages of durability, corrosion resistance, and low cost. However, in order to ensure the normal use of PPR pipes and prolong their service life, they also need to be maintained. So what should be paid attention to in PPR pipeline maintenance?IFAN Facebook Website:www.facebook.com，IFAN factory has 30+ years manufacture experience supporting color /size customization support Free Samples.
Prevent pipeline overload
Once the PPR pipeline is overloaded, it is easy to cause pipeline rupture and water leakage. Therefore, in daily use, it is necessary to pay attention to the load of the pipeline and avoid overuse and overload. Especially in the case of large water flow and high temperature, more attention should be paid to avoid overloading.
Regularly clean the pipeline
What needs to circulate in the PPR pipeline is clean water, so even if it is clean water, the pipeline will become dirty after a period of use. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the pipeline regularly. It can be cleaned by using a pipe cleaning machine, spraying cleaning agent, etc. During the cleaning process, attention should be paid to the tightness of the pipe to avoid wear and tear.
Prevent contact with chemicals
The contact between some chemicals and PPR pipe materials will produce chemical effects, which will also affect the service life of the pipe. Therefore, placing chemicals, acid and alkali substances, etc. around the pipeline should be avoided.
Prevent mechanical damage
Although the PPR pipe material has high hardness and good toughness, it still cannot avoid the risk of mechanical damage. Pay attention to avoid scratches, collisions, etc. during transportation, installation, and use. In addition, in the direct prevention of excessive bending of the pipe (under half the inner diameter of the pipe), the use of threaded joints that are too small (especially tees and above) should also be avoided.
Periodic inspection
In addition to regular cleaning of the pipes, regular inspections of the pipes are also required. Mainly observe whether there are cracks, damage, deformation, etc. on the surface of the pipeline, and deal with it in time to prevent accidents such as water leakage. In general, check at least once a year.
In general, the maintenance of PPR pipes is very important, which can improve the service life of the pipes, avoid large-scale water leakage, and reduce mild flooding in residential buildings. The above are the matters that need to be paid attention to in the maintenance of PPR pipelines. Users need to understand these details in daily life, and strengthen the maintenance of pipelines based on them so that they can have better use effects.
