FAQs

What is the purpose of the barrier layer?

The barrier layer prevents the permeation of oxygen, which can cause corrosion in metal components of the heating system.

Can I use Hep2O pipe with other types of fittings?

No, Hep2O pipes are designed to work exclusively with Hep2O fittings to ensure a secure and leak-proof connection.

How do I cut the Hep2O pipe?

Use a pipe cutter designed for plastic pipes to ensure a clean, square cut. Avoid using a hacksaw, as it may leave a rough edge.

How do I know if the fitting is properly connected?

The In4Sure joint recognition provides tactile confirmation when the pipe is fully inserted, ensuring a secure connection.

What is the maximum operating temperature for Hep2O pipe?

Check the product specifications for the specific temperature rating, but generally, Hep2O pipes are suitable for both hot and cold water applications.

What should I do if the pipe gets kinked during installation?

If the pipe is kinked, cut the affected section and replace it with a new piece of pipe to ensure proper water flow and prevent potential weaknesses.

Troubleshooting

Leakage at a fitting connection

Ensure the pipe is fully inserted into the fitting and the In4Sure joint recognition has been activated. If the problem persists, check the fitting for damage and replace if necessary.

Difficulty demounting a fitting.

Use the Hep Key correctly to release the fitting. Make sure the key is properly engaged.
