This Hep2O 22mm 90° Equal Elbow is designed for plumbers and DIY enthusiasts looking for a reliable and durable fitting for hot and cold water, and heating applications. Its key benefit is the secure, leak-free push-fit connection that significantly speeds up installation. A potential caveat is that it's specifically designed for the Hep2O system, requiring compatible Hep2O fittings.

The primary advantage is the speed and ease of installation due to the push-fit technology, which guarantees a leak-free connection without the need for specialized tools.
No, this Hep2O fitting is designed exclusively for the Hep2O system and is not compatible with push-fit systems from other manufacturers.
The Hep2O system, including this 90° equal elbow, comes with a 50-year industry-leading guarantee.
Yes, it is WRAS approved, meaning it is suitable for use in public water supply systems and for potable hot and cold water applications.
In4Sure is a feature that provides audible and tactile feedback when the pipe is correctly and securely pushed into the fitting, confirming a proper joint has been made.
For installation, you primarily need a pipe cutter and deburrer. A Hep2O release tool is recommended for disconnecting joints, but not for initial installation.
The pipe end should be cut square, clean, free from burrs, and deburred. For plastic pipe, a pipe stiffener should be inserted to ensure a secure and leak-free connection.
Ensure the pipe was pushed fully into the fitting until it reached the depth stop. Check that the pipe end was clean, round, and free from debris before insertion. Verify that a Hep2O pipe stiffener was used on plastic pipe if recommended for the application. If the issue persists, the fitting or pipe may be damaged and require replacement.
Confirm that the pipe is the correct 22mm size and is not distorted or out of round. Ensure the pipe end is cut square and deburred. Check for any obstructions inside the fitting or on the pipe end. Make sure you are using genuine Hep2O pipe and fittings.
Use the Hep2O release tool or grab ring tool. Ensure the tool is correctly positioned around the grab ring and applies even pressure to release the grip. The release mechanism requires deliberate action.
Setup: Ensure the pipe end is clean, free from burrs, and properly deburred. Push the pipe firmly into the Hep2O fitting until it reaches the depth stop. You should feel and hear the fitting engage. Use the Hep2O pipe stiffener if using plastic pipe for maximum security.
Compatibility: This fitting is exclusively designed for use with the Hep2O push-fit plumbing system. It is compatible with 22mm copper pipe and 22mm Hep2O plastic pipe. It is not compatible with other push-fit systems.
Care: Hep2O fittings are maintenance-free once installed. Avoid exposing the fittings to excessive external pressure or impact. If cleaning is required around the installed pipes, use a damp cloth and mild detergent; avoid abrasive cleaners.
