In boiler and heating systems, different fittings serve specific purposes to ensure safe, efficient, and long-lasting performance. Here’s a breakdown of the most common types:
Compression fittings – Ideal for copper or plastic pipes, they create secure joints without the need for soldering. Great for quick and reliable installations.
Push-fit fittings – Tool-free, easy-to-use connectors that simply “click” into place. Perfect for fast installs and retrofits.
Solder ring (end feed) fittings – Require soldering for a permanent, leak-proof seal. Commonly used in traditional copper pipework.
Threaded fittings – Screw-type fittings used for connecting mechanical components like boilers, valves, and pumps, especially in high-pressure systems.
Elbows, tees, and couplers – Used to change direction, split flow, or join different pipe sections. Essential for routing pipework efficiently.
Isolation valves – Allow specific parts of the system to be shut off for maintenance without draining the entire system.
Flexible hoses and connectors – Ideal for connecting boilers or cylinders in tight or awkward spaces, providing flexibility and ease of installation.
