Description
The JG Speedfit Flexi Hose is a high-quality plumbing solution designed to meet the diverse needs of both domestic hot and cold water services. With a length of 300mm, this flexi hose provides an ideal connection between plastic or copper pipes, particularly in situations where angles are too steep to bend the pipe appropriately. Whether you’re working on mains-fed or indirect cold water systems, or vented and unvented hot water systems, this flexi hose is versatile enough for various applications.
Key Features
- High Working Pressure: The hose can withstand a working pressure of up to 10 Bar, ensuring reliable performance.
- Quality Assurance: Manufactured by Speedfit, the hose comes with Water Regulations Advisory Scheme (WRAS) and National House Building Council (NHBC) approval, reflecting compliance with industry standards.
- Material Compatibility: It’s suitable for use with copper pipe to BS EN 1057 and Speedfit cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) Barrier Pipe to BS7291.
- Safe Installation: The JG Speedfit design allows for a safe, flame-free installation, eliminating the need for hot works, glue, or flux, making it user-friendly and ideal for confined spaces.
Installation Guidelines
The flexi hose is extremely easy to install. Simply push the push-fit fitting fully onto the pipe. To demount the connection when necessary, push the collet toward the body of the fitting and pull the pipe to release. For optimal installation, it is recommended to clip pipes in ceilings and roof voids every metre, ensuring they are not fitted closer than 60mm from the end of the fitting. Adequate support using pipe clips is essential to prevent undue stress on the fittings.
Durability and Protection
The flexi hose features a braided stainless steel outer layer, which protects the internal feed from damage, extending the lifespan of the product. When used indoors, Speedfit products are resistant to damage from sunlight. For outdoor applications, it is advised to protect the hose from ultraviolet light through lagging or suitable paint.
Use Restrictions
Although the JG Speedfit Flexi Hose is suitable for domestic water and oil-based paints, it cannot be used with gas, fuel oil, compressed air applications, or any cellulose-based paints, paint thinners, solder flux, or aggressive household cleaning products.
In conclusion, the JG Speedfit Flexi Hose is a reliable, flexible, and efficient solution for connecting plumbing systems, making it a valuable addition to any domestic installation. Its ease of use, coupled with high-quality materials and construction, ensures a seamless and durable connection in a variety of scenarios.
