Are water pipes prone to "sweating" in summer?

The water quality has a peculiar smell?

Is the pipe connection leaking?

Because of temperature problems

During the installation and use of pipelines in summer

Various problems may arise.

What is the solution? Can these problems be solved?

Prevent sweating and water leakage

The water temperature in the pipe is lower than the ambient temperature and the air humidity is high. When the water vapor in the air encounters the low temperature PPR pipe body, it will condense into water and adhere to the surface of the PPR pipe. , the so-called "sweating" phenomenon occurs.

If you want to avoid "sweating", the most important thing is to reduce the air humidity or reduce the temperature difference between the tube body and the surrounding air.

Surface-mounted pipelines can be covered with insulated pipes to isolate the PPR pipe from contact with the air, thereby overcoming condensation caused by temperature differences.

Eliminate odor in water quality

Generally speaking, there will be a period of time from the completion of pipeline installation to the official move-in. If protective measures such as wrapping are not taken in areas exposed to direct sunlight, PPR the water in the pipeline may breed bacteria and alga.

The PPR raw materials used by German Omanlon pipelines come from Borealis . They are non-toxic and have no peculiar smell. They fully comply with the requirements of drinking water for water transmission and distribution equipment, ensuring the safety and health of household water.

Omanlon PPR three-layer oxygen-blocking antibacterial pipe, the outer PPR anti-ultraviolet composite layer; the middle layer of oxygen-blocking composite layer, explosion-proof and pressure-resistant; the inner antibacterial layer is smooth and delicate, not easy to get mossed and scaled, and does not produce secondary pollution.

Prevent water leakage at the connection

The temperature is high in summer, and the temperature may exceed 40 degrees during some periods, so special attention should be paid when welding PPR pipes. When hot-melting pipe to , it is necessary to refer to the ambient temperature and reduce the heat absorption time as appropriate to avoid the risk of water leakage in PPR materials due to excessive hot-melt temperature.

Omanlon PP-R pipes have high strength, good impact resistance and long-term creep performance, and also have excellent resistance to chemical corrosion. The pipes are connected by hot-melt connection, which allows complete integration between the pipes and fittings. Once the pipes pass the pressure test after hot-melting, there will be almost no leakage in the PP-R pipes.

German Omanlon Pipeline has a 50-year continuous follow-up service system and a 70-year long warranty to help you use it worry-free!
