The new pipe, in 10, 15 and 22mm diameters, is primarily intended for radiator connections and for use in other areas where pipe is visible, such as airing cupboards. It avoids the need for separate painting of the pipe.
White 10mm Hep2O® pipe is supplied in coils only. 15 and 22mm pipe is available in 3m cut lengths.
Other recent introductions for radiator installations include the Radiator Back Box System which provides a convenient means of routing tails discreetly up behind the radiator. The box, similar to those used in electrical wiring, is countersunk into the wall lining and has a purpose designed cover with cut away to accommodate two 10mm radiator tails. The design avoids the need to bring tails up through the floor or to run them separately out of wall linings.
Hepworth also provides special straight and swept radiator connectors in white polybutylene, together with co-ordinated escutcheon plates.
