VISTA pipe is HYGIENIC?

Yes vista composite pipes are hygienic and can be used for transporting water meant for human consumption. The inner layer material used is PE of food grade and hence the use of vista multilayer composite pipes is hygienic.

Further Legionella bacteria occur in all fresh water, so also mains water, but they can only grow and become a risk under a number of specific conditions which particularly Concern the design and maintenance of the installation, and not the type of pipe used in the installation. The temperature of the water plays an important part. The bacteria are inactive and therefore not dangerous below 25°C. A water temperature of 60°C is too hot. The bacterium does not like running water. The danger occurs in water with a temperature between 25°C and 50°C that atomized. If the conditions are favorable for the bacterium, old pipes that are damaged or otherwise affected by corrosion can assist the growth of the legionella bacterium. The vista PE-AL-PE pipe is corrosion resistant because of this the bacterial growth is under check, thanks to the smooth wall of High density poly ethylene.
