Installing this system:
Spreader plates are installed from below using adhesive, screws and staples. Gaps are left at the ends to allow pipes to bend through 180°.
Where open web joists are installed, the fiow is connected to the manifold first. A double pipe is pulled to the furthest point, and then the inner pipe is pulled between the joist runs.
Complete this from the furthest point back to the last run, then cut the pipe back at the manifold.
Where solid joists are used, notch the bottom of the joist to allow the pipe to return. Cover with galvanised steel plate to prevent screws or nail damage.
