The benefits
With the design and build consortium planning such a fast-track construction programme, speed of installation – without compromising performance – was of particular importance. Wavin Tigris K1 has been specially designed with such requirements in mind. The flexible pipe means fewer fittings and faster, lower-cost installations. Its quick, safe and proven press-fit system means no hot works insurance – and no soldering, welding or thread cutting – is needed.
The patented hexagonal nose reduces push-in force and will hold 2m of pipe unpressed, so installers don’t need to hold the pipe in position. Furthermore, the defined-leak window and visual connection checks give installers the peace of mind that secure connections have been made every time. It is for this reason among others that Wavin offers a 10-year guarantee that covers not just product replacement but the costs incurred during the process of repairing any damages, plus personal injury and any third party damages. This is unrivalled in the industry.
