What is the difference between PPR pipe and PP-RCT pipe?

PPR pipes are used for standard hot and cold water supply up to 70°C. PP-RCT pipes have an enhanced beta-crystalline structure allowing operation at higher temperatures (up to 95°C) and pressures with thinner walls, making them ideal for HVAC chilled water and high-pressure systems.

Are PPR pipes safe for drinking water (potable water) in UAE?

Yes. Polymelt PPR pipes are manufactured from food-grade polypropylene and certified to DIN 8077/8078 and ISO 15874. They are completely non-toxic, corrosion-free and do not leach chemicals into water.

How long do PPR pipes last in UAE's hot climate?

Quality PPR pipes like Polymelt's POLYMUTAN system are rated for a service life of 50+ years under normal operating conditions. UV-stabilized PPR pipes are available for exposed outdoor installations in UAE's high UV environment.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions – PPR Pipes UAE

Everything you need to know about PPR pipe selection, pressure classes and installation in the UAE.

PPR (Polypropylene Random Copolymer) pipes are used for standard hot and cold water supply up to 70 °C. PP-RCT pipes have an enhanced beta-crystalline structure that allows them to operate at higher temperatures (up to 95 °C) and pressures with thinner walls, making them ideal for HVAC chilled water and high-pressure systems. As an authorized Polymelt distributor in UAE, Aquasafe Trading supplies both types.

PN stands for Pressure Nominal (bar at 20 °C). PN10 is used for cold water systems, PN16 for general hot and cold water supply, and PN20 for high-pressure or high-temperature applications. For UAE buildings, PN16 is the most common choice for domestic plumbing. Our blog covers this in detail: PPR pipe classes PN10 vs PN16 vs PN20 explained.
