Hep2O push-fit system ensure safe joint connections

The latest generation of the Hep2O plastic push-fit plumbing system includes a means of confirming that joints have been properly made and a new demounting system. The profiled end of the redesigned SmartSleeve interacts with castellation inside the Hep2O fitting, enabling the installer to simply push the pipe in, twist and feel the ‘rumble’ to make a fully secure connection.

The new demounting system uses a HepKey for quick and easy release of joints. HepKeys are included in all pipe coils and packs of popular fittings to ensure the installer always has one to hand.
