FAQs

Are these connectors suitable for central heating systems?

These connectors are primarily designed for hot and cold domestic water supply to taps and basins.

Can I use these with stainless steel pipe?

Hep2O is designed for copper and plastic pipe systems; use with stainless steel is not recommended.

What is the length of these connectors?

Each connector in this pack is 500mm long.

Do I need any specialized tools to install these?

No, the push-fit design is tool-free, though a standard pipe cutter is recommended for a clean, square cut.

Is the 50-year guarantee applicable to all installations?

The guarantee applies when the product is installed in accordance with the manufacturer's installation guidelines.

Troubleshooting

Joint is leaking immediately after installation

Remove the pipe, check that the end is cut square and free of burrs or scratches, then re-insert firmly until the tactile lock is engaged.

Difficulty inserting pipe into the push-fit connector

Ensure the pipe is not bent or distorted and that no debris is inside the connector. Lubricate the pipe end slightly with water if necessary.

Pipe feels loose within the fitting

Verify that you are using a standard 15mm outer diameter pipe and that it has been inserted past the initial O-ring seal.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Tool-free push-fit installation saves time
  • Compatible with both copper and plastic pipes
  • Tactile In4Sure feedback prevents joint errors
  • Flexible design simplifies routing in tight cupboard spaces
  • WRAS approved for peace of mind

Cons

  • Requires precise pipe preparation to ensure leak-free seal
  • Not suitable for use with certain corrosive chemicals
  • Rigidity of the hose may be restrictive in extreme bending radiuses

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal installation, ensure the pipe end is clean and cut square using a pipe cutter. Insert the pipe firmly into the Hep2O push-fit end until it reaches the stop; if the joint is difficult to insert, double-check for debris. While the connectors are maintenance-free, it is recommended to periodically inspect them for signs of external wear or dampness during routine plumbing checks. Do not use chemical pipe cleaners or aggressive lubricants on the push-fit mechanism, as these can degrade the internal seals.
