What is a CEW pipe?
A CEW pipe stands for a cold drawn electrically wielded pipe. Pipes can be made in a number of ways. One such method is to make pipes from sheet steel. The sheet is cut to the required width and rolled along the length. The ends are to be joined so that is forms a pipe. When they are welded using resistance then they are called ERW pipes and when they are electrically welded they are cold drawn electrically welded pipes or CEW pipes.
Why is it important to lag water pipes?
Lagging water pipes is important for several reasons: it helps to improve energy efficiency by minimizing heat loss in hot water pipes and preventing heat gain in cold water pipes. This insulation reduces energy costs and enhances the overall efficiency of heating and cooling systems. Additionally, lagging protects pipes from freezing in cold weather, which can lead to burst pipes and costly repairs. Lastly, it helps to reduce noise from water flow, contributing to a quieter living environment.
What is the diameter of cold water pipes?
That would depend on the application as some are larger then 48"
Do washing machines heat the water internally ours has 2 pipes leading into it the pipe is branched from the cold feed and one of the pipes is connected to the cold inlet and the other to the hot?
Very few heat water internally. These are usually very expensive and showcase the feature. It usually called a 'sterilization cycle'.
Does heating oil freeze in pipes exposed outside?
Yes, heating oil can freeze in pipes exposed to extremely cold temperatures. While it has a lower freezing point than water, it can still thicken and become less fluid at low temperatures, potentially leading to blockages in the pipes. Insulating the pipes or using heat tape can help prevent freezing and ensure proper flow.
What freezes faster hot liquids or cold liquids?
cold liquids
What is the full form of C.R.C pipes?
Cold Rolled Coil Pipes
How does vacuum flasks keep hot liquids hot and cold liquids cold?
by inhibiting heat conduction
Which cups glass ceramic plastic metal are best suited for keeping hot liquids hot or cold liquids cold?
metal
Can drain pipes freeze during cold weather conditions?
Yes, drain pipes can freeze during cold weather conditions if they are not properly insulated or protected.
Why do the pipes make noise when the cold water is on?
The noise you hear is likely due to thermal expansion. As cold water flows through the pipes, it can cause the pipes to expand and contract, resulting in the noise you hear. This can be exacerbated if the pipes are not securely fastened or if there are loose connections.
What quenches thirst best hot or cold liquids?
Cold liquids are generally more effective at quenching thirst compared to hot liquids. Cold liquids help to lower body temperature and provide quick hydration, which can be more refreshing when one is thirsty. Cold beverages also have a more satisfying and refreshing sensation on the palate, making them a better choice for quenching thirst.
What causes pipes to burst?
some times when temperatures go really cold in winters it causes water to freeze and as the water in pipes starts to freeze, the expansion that takes place when water freezes causes pipes to break
Do hot water pipes freeze faster than cold water pipes?
Why is the second paragraph a contradiction of the first? If hot water pipes 'Absolutely' do not freeze faster than cold water pipes then why the comment about the cold water pipes having a larger diameter which causes them to freeze at a slower rate than the smaller hot water pipes? Also, the word then in the last line should be thanand there should be an a between usually and larger. And, piping should be changed to pipe.
Should a homeowner expect more calcium carbonate build up in hot water pipes or cold water pipes?
Cold for the calcium carbonate is disolved by hot water.
Why do copper pipes carry hot water corrode faster than pipes that carry cold water?
Copper pipes carrying hot water can corrode faster due to the higher temperature accelerating the chemical reactions involved in corrosion. The heat can increase the rate of oxidation and other reactions that lead to the breakdown of the copper material. Additionally, the hot water can also increase the solubility of minerals in the water, which can further contribute to corrosion.
Why does the water have to run for a long time to get it hot?
The water pipes are full of cold water. All that cold water has to be flushed from the pipes before the hot water from the tank reaches your faucet.
