Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Permanent pressure pipes, also known as high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipes or pressure-resistant pipes, provide greater resistance to constant pressure in the irrigation system. Unlike conventional PE pipes, they are made from high-quality HDPE, which offers a longer lifespan and superior pressure resistance. These pressure-resistant PE pipes are also durable against mechanical stresses and chemical exposures, expanding their range of applications. Easy installation using compression fittings saves time and effort. Their excellent cost-performance ratio makes permanent pressure pipes the ideal choice for automatic irrigation systems and professional horticultural projects.
Permanent pressure pipes are primarily installed between the water source and the valve distribution. They serve as the main line from which all other water branches extend. These pipes supply the water outlets that lead directly to the irrigation points. Due to their high pressure resistance, they are particularly suitable for systems that require constant pressure. In areas behind the valves, where the pressure is lower, thinner-walled pipes can be used.
For permanent pressure lines, a pressure resistance of at least PN10, ideally PN16, is recommended to handle the constant pressure of up to 16 bar. The most common diameters are 25 mm (¾” PE pipe) and 32 mm (1” PE pipe), depending on the required water volume and distance. A larger pipe diameter reduces pressure loss over longer distances and allows for more efficient water distribution. Our pressure-resistant HDPE pipes are available in various lengths and can be easily connected using our compression fittings, specifically designed for these pressure levels. This ensures a safe and long-lasting installation of your permanent pressure pipe.
To prevent pressure damage, the pipes should be filled slowly, especially if they have been empty. Using a pressure regulator helps maintain constant water pressure in the system and avoid overpressure. A pressure compensation tank can also balance significant pressure fluctuations and protect the pipes. Regular maintenance and inspection of connections ensure that no weak points develop. Additionally, our pressure-resistant PE pipes offer high resistance to pressure damage, ensuring your irrigation system remains reliable in the long term.
For a water volume of up to 1.8 m³/h and a maximum distance of 70 meters, a 25 mm (¾”) PE pipe is sufficient. For higher flow rates or longer distances, a 32 mm (1”) PE pipe is recommended, capable of handling up to 3 m³/h. These pressure-resistant HDPE pipes minimize pressure loss and ensure even water distribution. Use the tool at www.druckverlust.de to calculate the optimal pipe diameter for your specific system and select the appropriate PE pipe. This ensures your irrigation system operates efficiently and meets your garden's water needs.

Choosing the Right PE Pipe
Choosing the right PE pipe is crucial for the efficiency of your irrigation system. Our HDPE pipes are available in different diameters and lengths to meet various requirements. For smaller gardens and lower water volumes, 25 mm pipes are ideal, while for larger installations and higher flow rates, 32 mm pipes are better suited. By selecting the right pipe diameter, you can minimize pressure loss and ensure even water distribution. Use our online shop to quickly and easily order the appropriate PE pipe and the necessary accessories.
Installation and Operation of Your Permanent Pressure Line
Installing your Plug&Rain® permanent pressure line is quick and easy. Start by laying the pressure pipe before the first solenoid valve and ensure the pipe has a minimum pressure resistance of PN10, ideally PN16 for maximum safety. Our compression fittings allow for uncomplicated and secure connections of the pipes, which can withstand constant pressure of up to 16 bar. When filling the system, it is important to fill the pipes slowly to avoid pressure damage. Using a pressure regulator or a pressure compensation tank helps maintain constant water pressure and balance fluctuations. Ensure all connections are tight and free from leaks. Regular inspections and maintenance guarantee reliable operation of your irrigation system. With our high-quality permanent pressure pipes and matching accessories, your system will operate efficiently and last a long time.
Installing the PE Pipes
Installing our pressure-resistant HDPE pipes is straightforward and requires no special tools. Thanks to the flexibility of the pipes, they are easy to lay, even on uneven terrain. Use our compression fittings to create quick and tight connections between pipe sections. To minimize pressure loss and ensure even water distribution, make sure not to kink the pipes. With our detailed installation instructions and high-quality accessories, you can easily install your permanent pressure line without any issues.
Operation and Maintenance
To ensure your irrigation system runs smoothly, regular maintenance and checks are essential. Regularly inspect the pressure pipes for possible damage or leaks. Clean the valves and water outlets to ensure optimal functioning. Using a pressure compensation tank helps balance pressure fluctuations and extend the lifespan of the pressure pipes. By using our high-quality PE pipes and clamp connectors, you can ensure that your irrigation system operates reliably and efficiently.
The Right Pipe Diameter for Your Irrigation System
Depending on the size of your garden and the required water volume, choose the appropriate pipe diameter. For most garden irrigation systems, a 25 mm (3/4") PE pipe is sufficient.
