Low noise waste pipe system

Picture of waste pipes

Everyone wants the plumbing in their buildings to be silent. Waste pipe drainage systems can be noisy and irritating and that’s why acceptable noise levels are now specified by legislation.

Silent operation matters and for this, you need a solution such as Wavin AS’ low noise drainage system. The system, which has LABC Registered Details certification, reduces noise levels for soil and waste effectively through wall thickness and density.

At 5.3mm for 110mm pipes and with a density of 1.9kg/dm3, the system manufactured in mineral reinforced polypropylene is ideal for use in industrial, commercial, and multi residential applications. It conforms to BS EN 1451-1:2000.

It is meant for use above ground in all building types, both internally and externally. The system is light and easy to install and comes with secure push-fit rubber connections and corrosion-free components that are designed to deliver a long lifetime of trouble-free service.

Furthermore, Wavin will give you tools and support to accurately predict the noise levels of any soil and waste installation. The tools developed by a specialist acoustic engineering company measure more than ten variables covering both airborne and system-borne sound.

LABC Registered Details, now known as LABC Assured (as of March 2019), is a one-off certification process proving compliance with building regulations and standards across England, Wales & Scotland. Registering your product, system or house type with LABC increases industry confidence while also raising the profile of your company.
