Plumbing Items - Good brands

[sree24]

hello All,

For plumbing materials, have you used Avonplast (https://www.avonplast.com/) products and do you suggest to use them for residential homes.

As per the plumbers, Aashirvad CPVC and Supreme PVC is good to use.

Avonplast products are not much seen, but factory being present near Bommasandra, Electronic city.

Please provide your valuable comments.

Thank you

Hi sree24,
In plumbing pipes ashivad, astral being front runners in CPVC, supreme in PVC materials. Avonplast is a mid range product in cpvc.

Few things to be taken care while comparing quotes
1. CPVC water pipes SDR 11 vs SDR 13.5 - SDR 11 is larger thickness and must for hot water pipes, long lengths on the exterior walls, pressurized and G+2 above buildings.
2. PVC waster water pipes 4kg vs 6kg gauge
3. Joinery items should be taken under refund or replacement policy only
4. Most vendors will give good deal while bulk payment and they bill extra while you pick loose items to cover up the margins and you wont pay much attention as the bill amounts will be less than 1-2k
5. There are other brands like flowkem in midrange upvc segments

Thank you Ar.Praveen for your support.

I am using Ashirvad for CPVC SDR11 and Supreme for PVC.

For my fellow members here, a quick lesson learnt :

For PVC waste pipe, I got SWR pipes instead of Rigid PVC Class 2. The thickness of SWR Class A is lesser compared to Rigid PVC pipes.

Hopefully it will work without much issues. Will keep you posted in case of issues

What about the PEX pipes like WAVIN or VIEGA ? Are they worth all the extra cost?
