imported pipe installation precautions
1、Vertical cutting
The imported pipe material ensures that the cut surfaces are smooth and free of burrs. Use specialized cutting tools to prevent damage to the joint from sand, dust, and other contaminants. Pre-clean the welding areas of the pipe fittings before welding. The heating head must be compatible with the size of the pipe being welded and must be connected to the power source. Wait for the heating head to reach the optimal temperature.
2. Utilize heat-welding method for connection.
The imported pipe materials and fittings are not to be directly connected. Instead, they should be connected to metal pipes using flanges. When connecting to water-using equipment, fittings with metal components are necessary. For hot-melt connections, robust hot-melt equipment is required to ensure the quality of the weld. Insert the pipe material and fitting into the hot-melt welding machine and heat according to the specified time.
3、Mark weld locations
Mark the welding depth on the imported pipe material using a pencil. After heating, remove the pipe and fittings and connect them. When connecting the pipe and fittings, if the positions are not correct, make minor adjustments within a certain time, but the angle change should not exceed 5 degrees. After connecting, firmly grasp the pipe and fittings and allow them to cool completely. once the pipe and fittings have cooled to a certain extent, you can release your grip, and then install the next section of pipe.
4、Inspect water pipes and fittings
Before installation, thoroughly inspect the pipes and all associated fittings for any signs of damage, leaks, or other issues. The connections of imported pipes and fittings must be correct and secure. After installation, perform testing to ensure proper functionality before proceeding with the installation.
5、Water pipe installation direction
It is recommended to run water pipes along the ceiling for the safest installation. This is primarily because most water pipe modifications run through concealed conduits, and water naturally flows downwards. If water pipes are buried underground, leaks are difficult to detect promptly. Leaks may not be discovered until water accumulates in low-lying areas or causes floor deformation and spills onto the lower level.
