BS 7291-1:2010 Thermoplastics pipe and fitting systems for hot and cold water for domestic purposes and heating installations in buildings - General requirements
This part of BS 7291 specifies general requirements and methods
of test for thermoplastics pipe and fitting systems intended for
use within buildings for the conveyance of cold water, including
drinking water, and heated water for use in domestic hot and cold
water distribution and heating installations. These systems are also
suitable for the conveyance of cold water for a period of 50 years at a
temperature of 20 °C and a design pressure of 12? bar.
This British Standard is applicable only to Class “S” pipes and fittings.
Details of the specific applications and service conditions are given in
Table 1.
This specification is applicable to rigid or flexible plain pipes, pipes
incorporating a polymeric barrier to inhibit gas permeability through
