Polyplumb Barrier Polypipe 22Mm X 3M

Polyplumb Barrier Polypipe 22Mm X 3M

The Polyplumb Barrier Polypipe (22mm x 3m) is a high-quality, straight-length pipe designed for demanding primary plumbing and heating applications. This pipe is made from Polybutylene (PB), which offers excellent flexibility and heat resistance. Supplied in straight 3-metre lengths, it is perfect for visible pipe runs, riser sections, or connections where the rigidity and neatness of a straight pipe are preferred over coiled pipe.

Key Features and System Integrity
WRAS Approved: Fully certified by WRAS, ensuring compliance with all UK Water Regulations for materials and safety in both potable (drinking) water and central heating systems.

Size and Length: 22mm nominal bore, supplied in a 3-metre straight length. The larger diameter is ideal for primary flow and return pipework.

Barrier Layer: Features an integral Oxygen Barrier Layer. This layer prevents the ingress of oxygen into the system water, which is critical for closed-loop central heating systems to protect metallic components (boilers, radiators) from corrosion and premature failure.

Material: Made from flexible and durable Polybutylene (PB), known for its resistance to freezing, scale build-up, and chemical attack.

Installation: Compatible with all Polyplumb push-fit fittings and compression fittings using the correct inserts. The straight length ensures neat, tidy installation with minimal pipe curving required.

Corrosion Resistance: Unlike copper, plastic pipe is immune to corrosion, leading to longer system life and fewer maintenance issues.

The Installer's Advantage
The 22mm x 3m straight Polyplumb pipe provides the perfect solution for installers needing rigid, clean-looking pipe runs, especially in visible areas like boiler houses or airing cupboards. The integrated oxygen barrier eliminates the need for pipe treatment, saving time and ensuring the longevity of the entire heating system.
