The system in Use
The physical properties of RAU PE-Xa, its toughness, flexibility and the fact that it is continuously extruded and can be supplied in long coils, make it the ideal choice for heating and plumbing applications.These characteristics mean that a new approach has to be taken to the layout and design of installations. In particular, the system lends itself to the concealment of pipework.
Heating & Plumbing Installation 
- Long life - Pressure stability across the temperature range gives a projected life in excess of 50 years - BS 7291:1990.
- Corrosion free - Chemically inert, there is no risk of corrosion, (often a problem with copper pipe in soft water areas).
- Non furring - The smooth internal walls and chemically inert nature of the pipework prevent scale build up.
- Reduced Theft - The pipe has no scrap value.
- Overall ease of installation is one of the obvious reasons for using REHAU Universal pipe.
- Pipe-in-Pipe - The pipe in sleeve installation method significantly reduces duct costs, both the costs of ducting and the costs associated with fitting pipework into ducts. Long pipe coils - Long lengths reduce the number of joints and allow the pipe to be pulled through awkward areas.
- Flexibility - When passing through joists.
- Speed of installation - Flexible pipe can be installed quicker than rigid materials. Joints are made extremely quickly.
- Safe - No naked flames needed for jointing. Coils of pipe are safer to move around busy sites or occupied premises.
- Manifold systems - The location of the distribution centre in one central position simplifies maintenance and speeds up installation.
- Earth Bonding - According to IEE16th Edition Regulations, earthbonding of PE-Xa pipes is unnecessary which further simplifies installation.
