Pre-insulated VarioModular pipe 16 x 1.5

aluminium multi-layer composite pipe

The VarioModular-Pipe 16 x 1.5 is an aluminium multi-layer composite pipe. Five layers are connected in the heating pipe, making the pipe flexible, easily bendable, yet dimensionally stable and thus ideal for surface heating systems.

The innermost layer of the pipe consists of a highly temperature-resistant polyethylene (PE-RT). The mirror-smooth surface does not allow deposits, allowing water to flow freely and with minimal pressure loss through the pipe.

Where the VarioModular-Pipe is used

Insulated heating pipes are used wherever heat losses are to be avoided. This is especially true for pipes that run through unheated areas such as basements, technical rooms, or garages, or for pipe penetrations through walls or ceilings, where insulation is crucial to reduce energy losses and prevent condensation.
