Our HTA hot and cold water fittings are designed for modern domestic and commercial water installations where long-term performance, safety and reliability are essential. Manufactured from a combination of CPVC, brass and stainless steel, these fittings form part of a fully matched HTA pipework system engineered specifically for the pressurised distribution of hot and cold potable water.
Positioned as a high-performance alternative to copper, the HTA system delivers consistent flow, excellent durability and simplified installation across a wide range of building types.
What Makes the HTA System Different?
HTA fittings are manufactured from chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC), a material chosen for its outstanding mechanical, thermal and hygienic properties:
Excellent resistance to corrosion, limescale and chemical attack
No risk of internal rusting or material degradation over time
Smooth internal bore to reduce frictional losses and maintain flow efficiency
Reduced opportunity for biofilm development and bacterial growth
Suitable for long-term potable hot and cold water distribution
These characteristics make HTA fittings particularly suitable for:
Residential housing
Schools and universities
Hospitals and healthcare facilities
Hotels and leisure buildings
Commercial and public-sector developments

Fire Safety & Building Compliance
Fire performance is a key consideration in modern building design, particularly in public and multi-occupancy spaces. HTA exceeds expectations in this area:
Classified B-s1,d0 (Euroclass)
Highest achievable fire classification for a synthetic piping system
Low smoke production and no flaming droplets
Supports compliance with stringent building safety requirements
Hygiene, Water Quality & Energy Efficiency
The smooth internal surface of HTA fittings provides several long-term operational benefits:
Reduced frictional losses help maintain pump efficiency
Lower energy demand compared to rougher-bore pipe systems
Minimal scale build-up helps preserve system performance
Reduced conditions for harmful bacteria to develop
Together, these features contribute to a safer, more efficient and more sustainable water network.
Installation & System Integration
HTA fittings are designed for fast, straightforward installation:
Lightweight and easy to handle on site
No hot works required - no flame, soldering or welding
Reduced installation time compared to copper systems
No hot-works permits needed
Simple training requirements
A wide range of CPVC-to-metal transition fittings is also available, allowing HTA systems to connect seamlessly to other pipe materials where required.
Quality Assurance & Certification
The HTA system is manufactured and quality controlled by Aliaxis UK, with rigorous testing and independent certification throughout its lifecycle:
WRAS product and material approval
Manufactured in ISO 9001 & ISO 14001 certified facilities
Regular third-party monitoring of mechanical and physical performance
Alternating pressure and water hammer testing to simulate real-world stresses
Certified for potable water use with full sanitary conformity
A Reliable Alternative to Traditional Materials
By combining thermal performance, fire safety, hygiene benefits and installation efficiency, HTA hot and cold water fittings provide a dependable solution for modern plumbing systems. Designed to meet demanding regulatory standards while offering long-term cost and energy efficiencies, HTA is an ideal choice for both new-build and refurbishment projects.
