Installing water pipelines for supply and drainage are among the major considerations during the construction or renovation of a building. In the installation of drainage pipe systems, long lengths of the pipes, for mains and individual systems, are connected with the use of pipe fittings or connectors. As plastic pipes are widely used in drainage pipe installations, appropriate plastic pipe connectors are used for their connections to ensure the highest levels of efficiency. Let us take a look at the role that drain pipe fittings play in drainage systems:

Early Warning Signs Of Problems In Water Pipe System Of Commercial Buildings

 Commercial buildings require a much larger scale of plumbing systems to accommodate the significantly higher footfall and operations. It is therefore important that the chosen system and its functionality is given due maintenance and timely checks. Paying heed to the early warning signs in the plumbing system can be extremely beneficial for the smooth operations in the commercial building. If ignored, these warning signs can turn out to be bigger problems that will require much more time, effort and costs for repairs.

Differences And Similarities Between CPVC and UPVC Pipes and Fittings

Among the different plastic materials for pipes and fittings, polyvinyl chloride or PVC is one of the preferred ones. Over the decades since its introduction, PVC has also been modified in composition and structure to derive the unplasticized PVC and the chlorinated PVC, uPVC and CPVC respectively. Each of these pipe materials has its own properties, and being derivatives of PVC, they also have some similarities while also having some differences in their properties. Let us try and understand the differences and similarities between the CPVC and uPVC pipes and fittings from the aspect of their different properties:

Preventing Clogs and Blockages in The Water Drain Pipe Network

The drain pipe network of any building channels the wastewater out in the correct manner. A clogged drainage pipe can damage the sewage system and in the long run even affect the construction of the building. Generally, not much attention is given to the water exiting buildings, which is why we do not realize the damage we cause to it by flushing down food and other solid wastes, hair, diapers, etc. These solid wastes can clog the drains and stress the pipes. Here are a few handy measures you can make use of to prevent blockages and clogs in the drainage pipe system:
