aquatherm lilac

Reclaimed and recycled water sources, and rainwater catchment systems are being specified and installed much more frequently as building and plumbing codes are updated to allow this as a means for improving water conservation.

In countries that are highly committed to the environment, like Australia, Europe and California, it is already standard to reduce daily water consumption by using recycled water when possible. aquatherm lilac is also regarded in other countries as a standard colour for grey water pipes, giving us both the colour and name for our reclaimed water service lines.

The codes require that the system be kept entirely separate from the potable water supply, and that the piping be colour coded and labelled to identify it as non-potable. The new aquatherm lilac pipe has been developed exclusively for these applications. 

The piping uses the same durable, corrosion resistant polypropylene material that has been successfully used for hot and cold water distribution for over 30 years. This, combined with design modifications, colouring, marking, and independent third-party certification by NSF International, make lilac the ideal choice for water conservation.
