Geberit FlowFit

Introduction to Geberit FlowFit

Geberit FlowFit is a next-generation press-fit piping system designed for optimal performance and efficiency in water supply and heating installations. With its flow-optimised design, FlowFit minimises pressure loss, allowing for smaller pipe diameters, reduced water volume, and faster draw-off times. This innovative system not only enhances water flow but also reduces stagnation, making it a modern, hygienic solution for both domestic and commercial applications. Its compatibility with other Geberit piping systems and its range of durable, eco-friendly components ensure versatility and ease of installation.

Applications

  • Potable Water Systems: FlowFit’s flow-optimised design ensures efficient water distribution with reduced pressure loss, smaller pipe diameters, and lower stagnation risk, ensuring hygienic and reliable water supply.

  • Heating Installations: The Geberit FlowFit system supports heating applications with specialised pipes and durable insulation, providing energy-efficient and long-lasting solutions for floor and radiator heating systems.

  • Mixed Material Installations: With its compatibility to integrate seamlessly with other Geberit systems, FlowFit adapts to complex installations that require connections to Mapress or other piping materials.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Flow-Optimised Design: Reduces pressure loss, enabling smaller pipe diameters, shorter draw-off times, and lower water stagnation risks.

Installation Overview

  1. Prepare the Pipe and Fittings:

    • Cut the pipe to the desired length.
    • Deburr the edges to prevent damage to the fitting.
    • Remove protective caps and inspect for cleanliness.
  2. Mark and Insert:

    • Mark the insertion depth for proper alignment.
    • Insert the pipe into the FlowFit fitting, ensuring it is fully seated.
  3. Press the Connection:

    • Use the correct Geberit pressing tool, ensuring the pressing indicator guides the tool for accurate alignment.
    • Press the connection securely.
  4. Verify Installation:

    • Check for unpressed connections using the built-in indicators.
    • Remove pressing indicators post-installation for visual confirmation.
