Radiator Pipe Guide and Seals

Designed specifically for use with 10 mm flexible plastic pipework, the Type GRS and GRS-FF guide and seal helps builders to achieve the air leakage requirements of the revised Part L Regulations and reducing heat loss where plastic pipes pass through plasterboard walls. The units will also help prevent kinking and chafing of pipework.

Features and benefits:

• Inexpensive, quick and easy to fit, the radiator pipe guide and seals provide a highly effective air leakage barrier, conserving energy and reducing householder’s fuel costs.
• For builders, they are a simple way of complying with the Revised Part L Regulations regarding airtightness.
• The face fix version (GFS-FF), is fitted to the external face of the blockwork or dry lining, which makes it slightly more versatile than the GRS, with different pipe routing options.
