Product Information

Full details

The Hep2O Keyless Double End Reduced Tee (KL18-22) is designed for professional plumbers and DIY enthusiasts working on domestic water distribution and central heating systems who require a fast, reliable, and leak-proof junction. Its primary benefit is the In4Sure joint recognition technology, which provides tactile and audible feedback to confirm a secure connection, though users should note it is primarily optimized for use with Hep2O pipework and specific copper diameters.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can this be used with central heating?

Yes, this fitting is fully compatible with domestic central heating systems.

Do I need a special tool to remove the pipe?

No, this is a keyless fitting, meaning you can demount it by hand without additional tools.

Is it compatible with all copper pipe?

It is compatible with standard copper pipe, provided the ends are cut squarely and deburred.

Does it need a pipe insert?

Yes, when using plastic pipe with this fitting, you must use a suitable pipe support sleeve (insert).

What is the warranty period?

The product comes with a 50-year guarantee against defects.

Troubleshooting

Pipe feels loose after insertion

Ensure the pipe has been fully pushed past the O-ring. If it still feels loose, check that the pipe surface is free of scratches or debris.

Joint is leaking under pressure

Shut off the water, remove the pipe using the hand-demounting method, inspect the O-ring for debris or damage, and re-insert a clean, smooth pipe end.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Audible and tactile confirmation of secure joints
  • No specialized tools required for installation or removal
  • Highly durable construction with a 50-year guarantee
  • Compatible with both copper and PEX pipes
  • WRAS approved for peace of mind in drinking water systems

Cons

  • Requires proper pipe preparation to ensure leak-free seals
  • Optimized primarily for Hep2O piping systems
  • Less permanent than soldered copper joints

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a successful installation, follow these steps:

  1. Cut the Pipe: Use a pipe cutter to ensure a clean, square end. Deburr the pipe edges thoroughly as jagged ends can damage the internal O-ring seal.
  2. Mark the Depth: Insert the pipe until you feel the resistance of the In4Sure grab ring and hear the audible confirmation.
  3. Testing: Once the system is pressurized, always perform a visual check for leaks before sealing the pipe behind walls or floorboards.
  4. Maintenance: While the fitting is designed for 50 years of service, avoid using abrasive chemicals or solvent-based cleaners on the plastic exterior to maintain the structural integrity of the fitting housing.
