Advantages of a PE System • Why do we connect air valves using 80mm NP16 connections?
• The option of retrofitting branch saddles using an approved procedure means that the use of flange joints can be minimised as an all flanged tee and flange assemblies are not required at the air valve and wash out positions
• All connections are fully pressure tested before been drilled and come with a full report
