GF Building Flow Solutions launches new CPD on MLC pipework

GF Building Flow

The new CIBSE-accredited CPD from GF Building Flow Solutions (formerly Uponor) offers valuable insight into the many benefits of multi-layered composite (MLC) pipework, with a particular focus on its hygienic and sustainability credentials. 

The hour long, face-to-face session for building service engineers will look at the relevant legislation, best practice installation methods and dispel common myths surrounding MLC to support well informed specification decisions.

The comprehensive CPD, titled ‘The popularity and multiple benefits of MLC pipe systems’, covers the size of the pipe market, legislation and megatrends. Following a review of the material’s features and benefits, the CPD goes on to look at hygienic considerations and how to prevent legionella, installation methods, project examples, as well as detailed technical aspects of MLC pipe systems including jointing technology and temperature ranges.

Rob Oakley, Business Development Manager at GF Building Flow Solutions, said: “MLC pipework has several advantages when compared to other materials. Our CPD aims to deepen the attendees’ knowledge of these systems and really showcase how they can deliver reliable, hygienic and sustainable solutions.”
