Microbore Pipe
Learn the key benefits of choosing microbore pipes:
Minimum Pipe Size: Set the minimum size in your design, which is typically 15mm, but you can choose as low as 10mm. You can also override any pipes to be 10mm if that’s what you have seen on an existing site.
Velocity Calculation: Based on the connected heat emitter and the associated kW load, you can see the velocity of the water in your pipe (CIBSE recommends a maximum of 1 m/sec).
Pressure Drop Calculation: Based on the connected heat emitter and the associated kW load, you can see the pressure drop of the water in your pipe (CIBSE recommends a maximum of 350 Pa/m).
Exports: Export the results to a spreadsheet for others to review. Generate various documents, such as heat loss reports. Receive PDF drawings with all pipe sizes and a bill of materials that includes pipe size, material, and lengths.
