Frequently Asked Questions

Is AIRpipe easy to install compared to traditional piping?

Yes. AIRpipe’s lightweight aluminum pipes and push-to-connect fittings make installation up to 70% faster than traditional steel or copper piping. No welding or threading is required, and systems can be easily modified or expanded with minimal downtime.

Does AIRpipe reduce energy costs?

Yes. AIRpipe’s smooth aluminum interior and leak-free fittings minimize pressure drop, allowing compressors to run more efficiently. This reduces wasted energy, lowers operating costs, and helps extend the life of your equipment.

How does AIRpipe differ from traditional black iron, copper, or galvanized steel piping?

AIRpipe is made from lightweight aluminum, which won’t rust or corrode like steel and copper. Its push-to-connect fittings make installation faster and easier, while the smooth interior improves airflow and reduces pressure drop. In contrast, traditional piping is heavier, harder to install, and more prone to leaks, scale buildup, and long-term maintenance issues.

What are best practices for planning an AIRpipe layout (drops, slopes, drains)?

When designing your compressed air piping layout, slope main lines toward condensate drains, install drops from the top of headers, and add drain points at all low areas. Proper piping slope and drainage ensures clean, dry air and prevents moisture buildup in your compressed air system. Talk to an air expert today.

How do I handle thermal expansion, vibration, and support spacing with AIRpipe?

Use expansion loops, flexible connectors, and proper pipe support spacing to manage thermal expansion and vibration. Following AIRpipe installation guidelines helps protect fittings and maintain long-term system integrity. Get AIRpipe installation guidance.
