Heat

Heat network systems (including district heating) for central heat sources

Polymer pipe systems provide safe, long lasting assets that do not leak.

Heat networks, including district heating systems, provide heat to multiple buildings from one or more central heat sources. Heat is distributed through a network of insulated pipes, removing the need for a separate heat source in every building.

Networks can use renewable and low-carbon energy, including heat pumps, geothermal energy and recovered heat from industrial processes. Polymer pipe systems can provide an efficient solution for distributing heat between the energy centre and connected buildings.

Polymer pipe systems can provide leak free solutions, offering flexibility to correct for ground movement. Supplied in long lengths, polymer pipe reduces the number of joints to make, and systems are available with different joint types including the ultimate leak free fusion joint.

Polymer pipe systems can meet the required lifetime due to high stress resistance and high corrosion resistance.
