Advantages of PERT-II Pipes
Flexibility
PERT-II pipes can be easily bent cold without the need for special tools, reducing the number of fittings required and saving installation time.
Easy Installation
No welding or mechanical processing is required.
Oxygen Barrier
Thanks to the EVOH layer, PERT-II pipes prevent corrosion of metal installation components and reduce the formation of sludge deposits that could otherwise clog the manifold valves and control panels of underfloor heating systems.
Freeze Resistance
In freezing conditions, PERT-II pipes do not crack due to water freezing inside the circuit. Their flexibility allows the pipe to expand instead.
High Pressure Resistance
Due to their manufacturing process, PERT-II pipes offer enhanced resistance to high operating pressures.
Energy Efficiency
The low thermal conductivity coefficient helps reduce heat loss, resulting in energy savings.
Corrosion Resistance
PERT-II pipes are resistant to most chemicals (acids, alkalis, antifreeze, etc.) and are immune to all forms of corrosion.
Higher Flow Rates
The smooth inner surface results in lower pressure losses compared to metal pipes. This allows higher flow rates while maintaining the same internal diameter.
No Scale or Deposits
The formation of limescale and other deposits, commonly found in metal pipes, is eliminated.
Electrically Non-Conductive
PERT-II pipes do not cause galvanic corrosion.
Lightweight
These pipes are approximately four times lighter than copper pipes of the same diameter, making handling and transportation easier.
Suitable for Drinking Water
PERT-II pipes do not alter the organoleptic properties (taste, odor, or appearance) of water.
Thermal Memory
When exposed to hot air, the pipes return to their original shape, making it easier to correct installation mistakes and perform repairs.
Noise Reduction
Because they are made of polyethylene, the transmission of acoustic waves is significantly reduced compared to metal pipes, even at higher water flow velocities.
