Application

Supply of hot, cold and chilled water at pressure.

Description

A complete system of flexible, easy-to-fit pipes and non-corrodible crimp fittings for the supply of hot, cold and chilled water at pressure, making it a versatile and longer-lasting alternative to copper.


Features and benefits:

  • Fluxo® is fully compatible with the HTA and SuperFlo ABS systems (specified separately), allowing for the provision of complete hot and cold water solutions throughout the entire building.
  • Quick and easy crimping press installation with TH fittings that require no welding or soldering.
  • Reduces heat loss and saves energy.
  • Aluminium layer protects against impacts, shocks and crushing and creates an anti-oxygen barrier to prevent iron oxide sludge forming in the network, whilst also providing strength and rigidity.
  • Light, flexible and easily shaped or curved.
  • Smooth bore slows bacteria growth whilst minimising frictional losses.
  • Excellent long term operating temperature resistance up to 70°C (10 bar)*.
  • Significantly quieter in operation over traditional materials.
  • Perfect connection every time, with built-in seating indicator.
