When every minute on site counts, draining down an entire system to carry out a small repair can be a frustrating, time-consuming and costly task. Arctic Hayes offers a smart alternative with its range of Pipe Freeze kits, which enable installers to carry out essential pipework repairs without having to shut down or drain the system.
The kits create a temporary ice plug within the pipework, allowing installers to isolate a section of pipe and complete the job quickly, cleanly and with minimal disruption. For time-pressed engineers, the savings are significant. Compared to a typical two-hour drain down and refill, pipe freezing can reduce job time by up to 85%, Arctic Hayes says. Freezes can last up to 45 minutes.
The ability to isolate a section of pipe without locating a stopcock or draining the whole system means fewer callbacks, less risk of water damage, and a tidier service.
Arctic Hayes offers three variants to suit different needs: the compact ‘Aero’ disposable kit, the reusable ‘Professional’ option, and the mains-powered ‘Electric’ model.
