Securing the Installation
The pipe can be securely fitted using friction-fit techniques or by applying a jointing compound for additional assurance. For enhanced security, especially in more complex installations, you might consider using optional accessories such as pipe brackets, insulation sleeves, and specialised sealing compounds. These accessories not only improve the longevity of the installation but also offer ease in maintenance and improve overall system efficiency.
