What our install partners say about Viega
Until 2017 we traditionally soldered on site, and decided to make the jump to Viega. The benefits of using Viega is the speed, they look great and the peace of mind that you're not going to have any future problems. To any installer that's hesitant to make the switch to Viega, I say do it. The time savings you're going to make on your projects, the profitability of your projects, it's a no-brainer for me.
Craig Forder (Managing Director), Heat Different
As a business, we want to install equipment that is going to last the test of time. Over the years with other manufacturers we've seen set failure rates which we haven't experienced with Viega. If you're hesitant of switching over to Viega, I say give it a try. The stock availability, the tooling, the training, and the support from Viega has been second to none and we haven't looked back.
James Ashton (Operations Manager), Able Plumbing
Coming from an installation background as a pipefitter, when you feel something, you get a good gauge for quality, and as soon as you touch a Viega Profipress or Megapress fitting, you just know how good it is and you can tell the quality behind it and the way it's been manufactured. You don't get much more complex projects than a hospital project and if we're using Viega in projects like that, then there's no reason why you can't use it anywhere else.
