Common Drinking Water Pipes
Why do some people live in the same place, and the water quality they drink and use in a day is so different? The focus is on the end of the urban water supply pipe network, and the difference in the choice of pipes for each family during decoration. So, depending on the city or region you live in, water quality can be good or bad.
The following are several common drinking water pipes in homes:
Copper Pipe
Copper pipes are not easy to rust, but if used for a long time, they will inevitably rust and produce patina. At the same time, the copper ion content in the water increases to a very considerable extent. The increased copper ions can indeed kill bacteria, but the harm to the human body cannot be underestimated.
Stainless Steel Pipe
It is not easy to rust, but the construction is difficult and expensive, and it is rarely used in ordinary civil buildings.
Polypropylene Tube
One of these materials is only a few decades old, but its use in drinking water pipes is already quite common. In addition to safety issues, the household water pipe generally recommended or mandatory for new residential areas is also polypropylene because of its hot-melt characteristics and easy processing. At the same time, it measures the industrial level of a country.
PP pipe has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, no scaling, and long service life. Because the inner wall is smooth, the surface friction resistance coefficient is low, and the water permeability is strong, and at the same time, the possibility of dirt accumulation in the pipeline is reduced, and there is no problem with ion pollution.
The polypropylene pipe that meets the standard is a green product and is harmless to the human body, that is, the water quality will not deteriorate again due to flowing through the plastic pipe.
Pp-r (random Copolymer Polypropylene) Pipes
PP-R pipe is a pure drinking water pipe, which can be used as both a cold water pipe and a hot water pipe. The raw material molecules of PP-R are only carbon and hydrogen, and there are no harmful or toxic elements. The joint adopts a hot melt connection, which avoids the toxicity of glue.
