TracPipe makes perfect sense for installers

July 9, 2012 - PRLog -- Installers who haven’t used TracPipe yet are missing a trick. It can save you up to 75% of the time needed to install a steel or copper pipe so you can ‘Quote More Competitively’ and be on to your next job in a fraction of the time. In fact, every installer who has used TracPipe said they would use it again in the future. So what are you waiting for?

This stainless steel semi-rigid gas pipe, is becoming recognised as the perfect alternative to traditional pipework installed between the meter and an appliance. It is easy to cut and bend by hand and requires no soldering or welding. You also don’t have the problem of the product being nicked off the job by metal thieves as you do with copper tubing.  

So why not sign-up for one of the free training courses, which are taking place nationwide? The fast approaching heating season will be fiercely competitive and this simple switch will put you one step ahead of your rivals.

Training includes an introduction to TracPipe and a demonstration of how to assemble the AutoFlare fitting which requires no special tools. Trainees will assemble a fitting and then answer a few questions to demonstrate their understanding of the product.

The sessions take about 45 minutes, with a trainer able to train up to 12 installers at one time. It’s no problem if more people require training, either extra sessions can be arranged or more trainers can attend a single session.

Jamie Cooper, Omega Flex’s Technical Manager, said, “Although TracPipe is easy to use it is important installers are trained to use it correctly to ensure that a gas tight joint is made first time, every time. They will learn the performance capabilities of TracPipe, the simple steps to make a good clean cut and how to tighten the fittings to the correct torque to ensure a leak proof seal.”

Training can be done in most locations – on site, at the premises of the installation company or at the Omega Flex factory in Banbury, UK. Installers who complete the training are awarded a certificate and a wallet sized ID card to show customers they are fully competent.

TracPipe is available in 30 to 90 metre reels with diameters of 12, 15, 22, 28, 32, 40 and 50mm. Or, if you need shorter lengths, Installer KITs are available in lengths of 5, 10 and 15 metres, ideal for smaller installations.

TracPipe is Kitemarked to BS 7838 and has been used in over 10,000 locations throughout the UK, including Knightsbridge, the Titanic Quarter, Discovery Wharf, Edgbaston Cricket Club, and numerous council homes, schools and flats.

TracPipe is available from all major stockists. For information contact Omega Flex Limited on 01295 676 670 or email: eurosales@omegaflex.net
