Choosing The Appropriate Water Pipe Fittings for Water Treatment Systems

Water treatment systems are of great importance to conserve the precious natural resource that is water. Already, there is an acute water crisis across Asia which affects a significant part of the population and also puts a strain on the existing natural water resources including the water bodies and groundwater reserves which are depleting at a rapid pace. Water treatment systems are not only important for purifying the water supplied to homes and other establishments but also in recycling the wastewater and making it fit for reuse. For water treatment systems, pipe connections must be secured with the appropriate pipe fittings to ensure leakproof and reliable connections. Here are some tips on how to choose the appropriate pipe fittings for water treatment systems:

1.    Choose the water pipe fittings for water treatment systems according to the requirement. Choose from elbows, tees, crosses, sand traps and filters according to the requirement of the pipe network to ensure seamless functioning of the system. Each of the fittings must be chosen in accordance with the specific function they are to serve, such as bending pipelines, diversion of water, closing connections, etc.

2.    Durable materials of are also recommended when selecting water pipe connector in a water treatment system to ensure that there is little to no damage in the pipe network from wear and tear over the long term and there are no leaks at the joints due to broken or cracked fittings.

3.    Water pipes and fittings for water treatment systems must also be chosen for ease of installation as well. Leading manufacturers now offer mechanical fittings with push fit ends that can be inserted with just a push and minimal effort as well as butt welding and electrofusion.

4.    Corrosion resistant fittings are a major criterion for the choosing water treatment systems. Since the fittings will be constantly exposed to water, it is important to choose materials which are resistant to corrosion from electrolytes, or rust. Plastic rainwater pipe fittings are an ideal choice in this regard as they do not have any metal components which get rusted and can perform optimally even under the harshest conditions.

To choose the highest quality plastic pipes and fittings for a wide range of water supply and management applications, explore the comprehensive range of solutions from Wavin, the leading global manufacturer of sustainable plastic pipes and fittings.

Access to safe and clean water is still limited to a small percentage of the global population. The available water resources have a significant amount of contaminants in them, organic and inorganic, which must be filtered out to make the water fit for use and consumption. It is here that water treatment systems play an important role. The water treatment system not only filters raw water but also recycles used water to render it fit for reuse. Plastic pipes and fittings are widely being used in water supply and management systems such as water treatment pipelines. Read on to know about the various properties of plastic water pipes and fittings that make them a suitable choice for water treatment systems:

Wavin’s Innovative Tigris Water Pipe Fittings

When it comes to the installation of water pipe connections, one of the best choices that you can make is plastic fittings. Ideal for joining a wide variety of plastic pipes and tubes, plastic fittings are known to be extremely resistant to corrosion, can withstand action of pressure, and are extremely strong and durable. Moreover, these are extremely lightweight and easy to transport and install, thereby making them extremely cost effective when being installed in pipe networks. There are different types of plastic fittings available which serve different functions. Let us take a look at some of these types: 1.    Tee Joints: One of the most common types of plastic water pipe fittings are the tee joints. These are, as the name suggests, shaped as the alphabet ‘T’ and are used to either divert a single line into two lines or connect two separate lines into a single line.
