Yes. The CPVC compound is UV stabilized. For added protection in harsh sunlight, cover exposed pipes or apply a water-based latex paint. Avoid oil or solvent-based paints.

Use the Ashirvad pipe repair piece. Clean and dry the damaged area, apply solvent cement, snap the repair piece over the pipe, and secure it with a string until set. Pressure test before replastering.

CPVC has low thermal conductivity (0.14 W/mK), so insulation is only needed for continuous hot water flow (e.g., solar heaters). Avoid insulation materials containing phthalate plasticizers.

Share pipe layout diagrams with all trades. Use contrasting color in solvent cement mortar to mark pipe routes and avoid accidental damage.

To manage thermal expansion. Use one Ashirvad expansion loop every 9–12 feet between fixed joints.

No. Use CPVC for both hot and cold water lines to prevent failures due to temperature backflow.

Clamping distance varies by pipe size and water temperature. For example, at 20°C, ½” pipes should be supported every 1.7 meters; at 80°C, every 0.8 meters.

Yes. Ashirvad FlowPro+ solvent cement is NSF/ANSI 61 certified and safe for potable water.

Use 15 mm thick plywood pieces (6” x 2”) fixed over the pipe in the chase. Avoid contact with nails and ensure proper alignment and grouting.

Use metal nipples and transition fittings. Maintain clearance from flue outlets and install T/P relief valves correctly.

Frictional losses depend on pipe size and flow rate. Refer to the friction loss chart for detailed values.

Avoid materials like Vaseline, WD-40, silicone sealants, PVC wrap tape, vegetable oil, and insulation with phthalates. These can cause stress cracking or failure.

Increase pump ramp-up time
Use metal fittings immediately after the pump
Use Schedule 80 CPVC with 2-step solvent cement
Provide proper support to avoid sagging

It’s a device that absorbs shock from sudden water stoppage. Ashirvad WHAs are factory-sealed, maintenance-free, and long-lasting.
Yes. The CPVC compound is UV stabilized. For added protection in harsh sunlight, cover exposed pipes or apply a water-based latex paint. Avoid oil or solvent-based paints.

Ashirvad FlowPro+ pipes are made from an upgraded, high‑strength CPVC material formulation engineered for superior chemical resistance, structural integrity, and long-term performance. Their enhanced CPVC cell class improves durability and ensures the pipes perform reliably even under high temperature and pressure conditions.

Ashirvad FlowPro+ is designed for a wide range of hot and cold-water applications, making it ideal for high-rise buildings, commercial spaces, hospitality projects, vertical risers, pump rooms, and centralized hot‑water systems. It is one of the most trusted pipes for hot and cold water due to its mechanical strength and NSF-certified safety for potable water.

Yes. FlowPro+ pipes are engineered for long-term durability, featuring a high-strength polymer design that delivers excellent tensile and impact strength. Their extra-smooth inner surface prevents corrosion, scaling, pitting, and microbial growth, ensuring clean and efficient water flow for decades. The system is rigorously tested and backed by Ashirvad’s long-standing reputation of 25+ years of trust and performance assurance.

Yes. FlowPro+ CPVC piping offers strong structural integrity and thermal endurance up to VSP 113°C, allowing reliable performance even in demanding conditions such as rooftops, solar heating systems, and exposed outdoor installations. Its corrosion‑free and weather‑resistant properties make it suitable for both indoor and outdoor plumbing layouts.
