Buteline offers quicker installation for Duncroft

Michael Cockcroft, who jointly runs Duncroft Plumbing and Heating with James Duncan, said: 'The push fit system we were using previously was proving difficult to install due to its bulky nature'.

'Buteline's polybutene clamp seal system offered a more attractive alternative due to its compact size and has significantly helped to speed up installation due to the ability to easily bend the pipe in tight spaces'.

He added: 'The clamp seal fixing method has helped to cut the time taken to join sections together leading to an even greater saving, both in terms of time and the associated labour costs involved, allowing us to take on more work as a result.' He continued: 'As a smaller system, Buteline can be hidden within walls and ductwork, something which can prove difficult to achieve with larger systems'.

Many push fit plumbing systems can present problems for the installer, which can increase the time required to fit it.

The Buteline system comprises two parts, flexible polybutene pipe and a one piece fitting.

By pushing the pipe into the fitting, the installer uses a simple hand held clamp tool to apply six tonnes of controlled pressure to the exterior of the fitting to deliver a bond so secure, it will never come apart, says Buteline.
