Almeva PPRM18 Rigid Flue Pipe with Socket 1m DN 80

The Almeva PPRM18 is a high-quality rigid flue pipe specifically engineered for modern condensing boiler systems. With a length of 1 meter and a diameter of 80 mm, this component is designed to facilitate the efficient and safe removal of flue gases. The pipe features a precision-engineered socket connection, which ensures a tight, secure fit between segments, minimizing the risk of leaks and simplifying the assembly process for professional heating installations.

Advantages

This flue pipe is constructed from premium-grade polypropylene, a material chosen for its exceptional durability and resistance to the corrosive nature of acidic condensate produced by condensing boilers. Its rigid structure provides long-term stability and maintains its integrity under the specific temperature conditions associated with high-efficiency heating systems. The smooth interior surface promotes optimal airflow, reducing resistance and ensuring that the exhaust system operates at peak performance throughout its service life.

Suitable for

• Condensing boiler flue gas exhaust systems
• Residential and commercial heating installations
• Vertical and horizontal flue routing
• Replacement or extension of existing 80 mm polypropylene flue systems

When it may not be suitable

This product is not intended for use with non-condensing boilers or appliances that produce flue gas temperatures exceeding the thermal limits of polypropylene. It should not be used in applications where the flue system is exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods or in environments with high mechanical stress that could compromise the rigid pipe structure.

Key specifications

• Material: High-quality polypropylene
• Diameter: 80 mm
• Length: 1 meter
• Connection type: Socket connection
• Application: Condensing flue gas systems

How to use

Installation should be performed by a qualified heating technician in accordance with local building codes and manufacturer guidelines. Begin by ensuring that the flue path is clear and properly supported. Insert the spigot end of the pipe into the socket of the preceding component, ensuring the seal is properly seated. Use appropriate mounting brackets to secure the pipe at regular intervals to prevent sagging or misalignment. Always verify that all connections are airtight and that the system maintains the required slope for condensate drainage back to the boiler.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required diameter of your existing flue system
• Ensure compatibility with your specific boiler model
• Check local regulations regarding the use of polypropylene flue components
• Confirm the total length required for your installation

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the flue system for any signs of condensate leakage or physical damage. Ensure that the slope of the pipe is maintained to allow for proper drainage of acidic condensate, preventing accumulation within the flue line.
