Causes and Solutions of PPR Pipe Burst

Jan 22, 2022

Causes of PPR pipe burst:

1. Before or during installation, the pipe is exposed to external force, which causes the pipe to be invisible and burst under pressure.

2. The instantaneous pressure in the pipe is too large, or the water hammer effect occurs until the pipe bursts.

3. Improper use series specifications, low wall thickness series, can not meet the use requirements.

4. The temperature of the pipe is too low, and the freezing causes the ice to burst the pipe.

5. The quality of the pipe itself, impurity points, local thin wall thickness, concave points, etc.


Solution after burst:

1. The amount of water leakage after the water pipe burst is generally directly related to the water pressure in the pipe. Regardless of whether the water is dripping or gushing out, the most important thing to do at this time is to immediately close the valve of the water supply pipe, and immediately ask a repairman to come over or report to the local property department for repair.

2. Bundle the damaged part of the water pipe with a special tape for repairing the water pipe.

3. In addition, glass fiber tape or epoxy resin adhesive can also be used to repair the cracks in the water pipe.

4. If the rupture of the water pipe is serious, you can wrap the ruptured part of the water pipe with a towel, which can not only prevent the water from spraying around, but also introduce the water into the placed bucket, so as to avoid huge waste. At the same time, it can also close the valve of the main water pipe in the house to completely intercept the tap water supply in the house.
