WAVIN AS is the most widely used soundproof drainage system among installers, optimising the performance of any plastic pipe and providing the ideal solution to meet the most current building regulations on the subject. WAVIN AS also offers advanced tools for calculating and predicting the sound level caused by drains within a building, guaranteeing tailor-made solutions for the required sound level.
Noise reduction
WAVIN AS reduces the noise level of drainage systems more than any other solution, thanks to the significant work done on thickness and density (1.9 kg/dm3) during development. In fact, the WAVIN AS system performs far better than any other system on the market, the noise level is Lsc,A 6 db(A) 2 lt/s, tested at the Fraunhofer Institute in Stuttgart (P-BA 220/2011e) in accordance with EN 14366.
Airborne and structure-borne sound
The WAVIN AS system guarantees optimal reduction of both airborne and structure-borne sound. The former is made possible by the thickness of the walls and mass, the latter by the low modulus of elasticity of the flexible PP material and the use of special joints.
World leader
WAVIN AS is the world's most installed soundproof waste water and white water drainage system. Over the past 25 years, the solution developed by Wavin has grown in importance, becoming the most popular and most appreciated by architects and building designers.
Real calculation of perceived noise
Wavin provides tools and specific assistance to calculate the exact noise levels of Waste Water systems. The software offered by WAVIN AS, developed by a company specialising in acoustic engineering, calculates the noise level according to different variables related to the propagation of sound in the air and through structures, depending on the different possible installations and the different drainage systems used.
Better thancast iron:
The WAVIN AS system offers significantly better sound insulation properties than cast iron, as well as being lighter and easier to install. The plug-in joints whose tightness is guaranteed by elastomer gaskets also ensure the system's long life and prevent any corrosion problems.
