FAQs

What makes this elbow 'pushfit'?

It uses a mechanical grip and an O-ring seal system, allowing you to simply push the pipe into the fitting to create a secure, leak-free connection without soldering or compression tools.

Can I use this on existing plumbing?

Yes, provided the existing pipework is compatible (e.g., copper, PEX) and in good condition. Ensure pipe ends are prepared correctly.

What is the advantage of the stem design?

The integrated stem design eliminates the need for a separate rising spindle and packing gland, which are common sources of leaks and require maintenance in traditional fittings.

How long does this fitting last?

These fittings are designed for long-term durability and reliability in standard plumbing applications, typically lasting many years when installed correctly.

Do I need special tools to install it?

For installation, only a pipe cutter and possibly a deburring tool are needed. A specific removal tool is recommended if you need to disconnect the pipe later.

What is the maximum operating temperature and pressure?

Consult the manufacturer's specifications for precise temperature and pressure ratings, but they are generally designed for standard domestic hot and cold water systems.

Troubleshooting

Fitting leaks after installation

Ensure the pipe was cut square and is free of burrs. Verify the pipe was pushed in fully to the correct depth. Check for any debris inside the fitting or on the pipe.

Pipe will not insert fully

Check if the pipe is deformed or if there are internal obstructions. Ensure the correct pipe size is being used for the fitting.

Difficulty removing pipe

Use the designated removal tool or follow the manufacturer's instructions for releasing the pipe grip. Ensure the release ring is fully depressed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly speeds up installation time.
  • Reduces the likelihood of future leaks and callbacks.
  • User-friendly design requires no special tools for basic fitting.
  • Eliminates common points of failure like packing glands.
  • Reliable performance in standard plumbing systems.

Cons

  • Requires precise pipe preparation for a secure pushfit connection.
  • Not suitable for all types of pipe materials without proper adapters.
  • Initial cost might be higher than traditional fittings.
  • Limited to specific connection sizes (15mm x 10mm in this pair).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the pipe ends (both 15mm and 10mm) are cut square and free from burrs or damage.
  2. Mark the insertion depth on the pipe using a depth gauge or the fitting's markings.
  3. Push the pipe firmly and squarely into the appropriate connection of the elbow until it reaches the insertion mark.
  4. Repeat for the other pipe connection.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with copper, PEX, and CPVC pipes conforming to relevant standards.
  • Ensure pipe wall thickness is appropriate for pushfit connections.
  • Not recommended for use with certain types of flexible or grooved pipes without manufacturer approval.

Care:

  • No specific maintenance is required for the fitting itself under normal operating conditions.
  • Regularly inspect the surrounding pipework and system for any signs of external damage or leaks.
  • If the system needs to be drained, ensure proper procedure is followed to avoid damaging the seals.
