REHAU has expanded its pre-insulated pipework range with the launch of RAUVITHERM DW.
REHAU says it has observed an increasing number of installers and specifiers requesting pre-insulated pipework with drinking water approval, which led to the development of RAUVITHERM DW.
The latest addition to the RAUVITHERM range uses a RAUTITAN standard dimension ratio 7.4 carrier pipe, REHAU’s KIWA-approved plumbing and heating pipe; with crosslinked polyethylene foam sheet insulation and a corrugated polyethylene outer jacket.
The company says the system functions with REHAU’s RAUTITAN RX+ fittings – a compression sleeve joint which creates a permanently sealed joint, without O-rings, offering visibly reliable connections.
Alexandra Leedham, Technical Team Leader at REHAU Water Technologies, said: “We are always listening to our customers, and innovating in line with their feedback, wants and needs when it comes to pipework. This is why RAUVITHERM DW is being brought to the market. We are elevating our heat network offering by combining REHAU’s renowned plumbing pipework and our flexible pre-insulated system to meet these demands.
“Our RAUTITAN carrier pipe boasts KIWA KUKreg4 Level +1 approval, confirming that this carrier pipe is the ideal choice for the provision of drinking water. It’s our belief that specifiers and installers should be equipped with solutions that are not only efficient, but tailored for their intended application.”
