Maintenance and Care Tips
- Regular Visual Inspection: Check annually for signs of physical damage, loose sections, or discolouration, especially in high-traffic or external areas.
- Cleaning: Wipe with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or pressure washing, as these can damage the surface.
- Repairs: Small cuts or tears can be sealed with compatible PVC tape or Okapak repair patches available from pipelagging.com.
- Outdoor Use: Ensure all joints remain sealed to prevent water ingress. Reapply sealant tape if the overlap edges lift over time.
- Storage: Store unused sections in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve adhesive performance.
- Avoid Overloading: Do not hang heavy items from lagged pipes – use separate supports to prevent deformation.
