Electrofusion welding is a method of joining MDPE, HDPE and other plastic pipes using special fittings that have built-in electric heating elements which are used to weld the joint together.
Some of the biggest advantages of electrofusion fittings are:
- Chemical resistance and non-corrosive
- Easy to install
- Secured and long-lasting
- Produce consistent joints
- Diverse fitting range
- Low operation costs
Electrofusion welding is an innovative technique that provides many benefits, such as ease of installation and low costs. If you’re on the fence about electrofusion, please consider the following factors:
- Accessibility: Generally, electrofusion is a more practical solution in situations where there are accessibility constraints, such as trenches.
- Life span: Electrofusion has a greater life span than mechanical joints.
We provide full pressure and flow rate tests, whether it is undertaking a pressure and flow rate test prior to installing a new 25mm MDPE service pipe, or undertaking tests on Fire Hydrants or on water networks on large estates.
We can run tests to determine whether it’s possible extend your existing water networks, or if a new connection is required.
