different types of plumbing pipes

First, the material is different

There are differences in the material of hot and cold water pipes. In general, the cold water pipe is mainly made of PVC, its advantages are corrosion resistance, not easy to aging, waterproof performance; while the hot water pipe is generally made of PP-R, which has high temperature resistance, high pressure, high strength and other advantages.

Second, the color is different

Cold water pipe and hot water pipe color differences also exist. Cold water pipe is often blue or green, this is to allow users to distinguish the location of the cold water pipe, so as not to be confused with the hot water pipe. The hot water pipe is red or orange, easy to distinguish.

Third, different uses

The use of hot and cold water pipe is not the same. Cold water pipe is used for cold water supply, generally used for kitchen sinks, washing machines, toilets and other cold water equipment connection. Hot water pipes, on the other hand, are used for hot water supply and are often used for baths, water heaters, heating, etc.

It is very important to install and maintain hot and cold water pipes correctly. Here are some reminders:

  1. Before installation, check that the length and size of the hot and cold water pipes meet the requirements and that the connections are secure.
  2. During installation, cold water pipes should be placed separately from hot water pipes and not intertwined.
  3. When installing the pipes, appropriate bending corners should be reserved, do not bend the hot and cold water pipes too much.
  4. In the process of use, check the water pipe regularly for leakage, and repair or replace it in time.
