PPR pipe or copper pipe which is good for water pipe

In fact, whether it is PPR water pipe or copper pipe, they have their advantages and disadvantages, and not one of them is necessarily perfect. The cost of copper pipe is higher in terms of material. Its advantage is that it has sterilization effect. It is far-fetched. Its biggest advantage is that its high temperature resistance and pressure resistance are much higher than PPR water pipes. At the same time, due to With high thermal conductivity, its thermal insulation performance will be much worse, and the energy loss will also be large. Of course, this shortcoming can also be solved by thermal insulation pipes. The material of PPR pipe is much cheaper than copper pipe, so it is cost-effective, and its shortcoming is actually not a problem of breeding bacteria. The biggest shortcoming of PPR pipe is that its temperature resistance is much worse than that of copper pipe. , Its long-term working temperature generally does not exceed 70 ℃, but in fact, household water generally does not exceed 50 ℃, so the disadvantage of this PPR water pipe will not affect the normal use of PPR water pipe. Another point is that PPR water pipes cannot be as thin as a copper pipe. The biggest advantage of PPR water pipe is that its hot-melt welding is currently the most reliable pipe connection method. It has been tested by the market. Once the welding is completed in accordance with the standard welding specifications, it can be said that there will be no water leakage problems. Of course, the welding itself Irregularities are not guaranteed
