Can I use my Hanflo fittings with my swimming pool/spa pool set up?
No, as the high concentration of chlorine used in the water for pools, will attack the material. The fitting material is only suitable for use with domestic water. Hanflo products that are used in this application will not be covered by warranty.
Are Hanflo Ball Valves Frost Friendly?
Hanflo Ball Valves are Frost Friendly and have been tested in frost conditions. Results may vary in freezing conditions.
What temperature can I use Hanflo fittings at?
Hanflo have tested all its products for use with cold water up to a maximum temperature of 60°C (140°F). We do not recommend the use of these products with temperatures higher than 60°C (140°F) as plastic expands due to temperature increases. Hanflo cannot guarantee the products will perform when used with temperatures over 60°C (140°F). Hanflo products that have failed in temperatures higher than 60°C (140°F) will not be covered by warranty.
