THE FUTURE OF ROOFING FOR IRISH HOMES INTRODUCING OUR NEW QUAL-PRESS ML PRO ALUMINIUM PIPE & FITTING SYSTEM

Pipelife own our manufacturing process from start to finish, so every coil of our new Qual-Press Pro ML pipe that we produce is guaranteed from concept to delivery. All of our pipe is manufactured under the ISO9001;2015 Quality Management System and our quality assurance team stringently test all our pipe at every stage of production.

Pipelife are delighted to announce the newest member to the Pipelife Family with the addition of our Qual-Press ML Pro Pipe in sizes ranging from 16mm x 2mm, 20mm x 2mm, 26mm x 3mm and 32mm x 3mm. Available in plain white & red and blue insulated coils in 25M, 50M and 100M & 500M coils. Pipelife are always proud to stand over all the products that we manufacture and that is why we are happy to offer a market leading 50 Year Guarantee on our new Qual-Press ML Pipe.

With full BS7291-Class S and WRAS approvals, specifiers and installers alike can have full confidence in the quality and reliability of this new range. Our Qual-Press Pro ML Pipe are ideally suited for underfloor heating systems. They are made of a layer of aluminium sandwiched between two layers of Pert. The metal layer serves as an oxygen barrier, stopping the oxygen diffusion through the polymer matrix, so it cannot dissolve into the water in the tube and corrode the metal components of the system. It also bends better, because the shape memory of the Pert is offset by the aluminium.

Our Qual-Press ML Pro Pipe is a universal pipe that can be used with any suitably approved/certified* Press fitting.

The advantages of Qual-Press ML Pro pipe compared to metallic pipes are the following:
• Frost resistance. In case of frost, multilayer pipes, thanks to their flexibility, will simply expand. This advantage avoids the break risk of metallic pipes.
• Low thermal conductivity. The low thermal conductivity of multilayer pipes produces energy savings as heat losses are reduced.
• Lightness. Multilayer pipes are lighter than metallic pipes. So, handling and transport are much easier.
• Flexibility. The flexibility of multilayer pipes saves time in the installation process.
• Noise reduction. Metallic pipes are very noisy at water speeds exceeding 1m/second. To the contrary, multilayer pipes do not make noise at lower speeds than 2,5m/second.
• Corrosion resistance. Multilayer pipes bear a great number of chemical agents (acids, bases, etc.) and are resistant to any type of corrosion.
• Long lifetime. Multilayer pipes lifetime is bigger than the lifetime of metallic pipes. The lifetime of multilayer pipes can reach 50 years, even at high temperature and pressure conditions.
• Suitable for drinking water. Multilayer pipes keep organoleptic properties of the water and its use is allowed by
European Union authorities.
