Plastic pipes – Alternative to metal

As you know, most of the metal pipes that are designed for the needs of the population such as the water supply in connection with the abundant use of non -high -quality water, quickly become unusable and require overhaul or replacement. As a rule, pipes are made of steel in 70 % of cases and their service life barely reaches 15 years. As for the plastic pipes, they become unusable only after 50 years, and if you use them to supply hot water then 25-30.

These are the indicators very much change the opinion of people about what pipes are needed at home. The best option will be polymer pipes for which it is growing every year. A wide selection of materials and its variety that arose in the West several decades ago are very different from each other in quality, price and new technologies.

Today, there are 4 types of pipes used such as metal -plastic. Polyethylene, polypropylene and polyvinyl chloride that were created the first of the artificial material.

The pipes that arose in the 30s were used only for small buildings with individual water supply and were not safe since toxins were released. Now, a lot of attention is paid to security to prevent extraordinary cases.
