Advantages of APL Apollo PPR-C Plumbing System

No Scaling

Pipes that have a rigid interior tend to have deposits accumulate over time. These are typically called scaling caused by the mineral deposits in the water. APL Apollo PPR-C pipe fittings have a smooth interior surface that prevents any deposits or scaling from being formed. Not only does this ensure optimal water flow at all times, but it also reduces the risk of damage to the pipes.      

Thermal Insulation

APL Apollo PPR-C pipe for hot and cold water provides excellent thermal and sound insulation, which makes it a popular choice for installation in upmarket applications as well. The PPR-C pipe fittings can handle temperatures from (-20°C to 95°C) and come with an operational life of 50 years. Note that for industrial applications, the freezing point of the fluid in insulation must also be considered.

Leak Proof

Leaks and cracks in the plumbing systems are a major source of hassle and expense. The joints are typically the weakest points in the plumbing system. In high-pressure applications, these joints can weaken over time, leading to leaks. Not only does this impact performance, but it also increases maintenance costs. APL Apollo PPR-C pipe uses heat-fusion jointing that allows for sturdy joints even under tough conditions. Further, the ease of this jointing process ensures a quick and budget-friendly installation.

Resistant To Chemicals

The top-quality raw material used by APL Apollo and the innate nature of this system makes it resistant to chemicals. This property opens up the use of these systems for industrial purposes that deal with harsh chemicals as well as other critical applications such as agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and more.

Certified Products

The market is flooded with all types of plumbing systems. Oftentimes, people look only for economical options without paying attention to the quality. Low-quality systems tend to break down faster or require frequent repair, which results in higher running costs over time. APL Apollo PPR-C pipe and fittings are made using the latest technology and manufactured in accordance with top industry standards such as IS: 15801 and DIN: 16962, respectively.

Bacteria Free

When it comes to plumbing systems for water, toxins and bacterial contamination are major concerns. With APL Apollo PPR-C pipes, one can rest assured that there will be no change to the odour or quality of the water, making it perfect for potable water. Further, the PPR-C pipe for hot and cold water can withstand higher temperatures without getting damaged, making it perfect for residences, schools, hospitals, and others.

APL Apollo PPR-C Pipe Fittings

In every plumbing system, fittings play a crucial role in ensuring the pipes are attached seamlessly to each other, allowing a smooth flow of water. Popular fittings for the PPRC system by APL Apollo include PPR-C Elbow 90°, PPR-C Elbow 45°, PPR-C Equal Tee, PPR-C Reducer, PPR-C Coupler, PPR-C Union, and more.
