Vacuum piping
Jets® sanitary systems reduce water- and energy-use, have reliable operation, and long lifespan. Like any other system, correct installation is necessary to achieve maximum performance and value.
Correct dimensioning and routing of the pipe system ensure smooth flow and reduced maintenance needs. An important factor for achieving maximal performance of the vacuum system.


Why pipe installation matters
The pipework is central to how a vacuum system functions.
- Vacuum systems rely on pressure difference rather than gravity, and therefore the pipes must be airtight, correctly dimensioned, and smoothly installed to maintain stable vacuum levels.
- Proper routing is essential, avoiding unnecessary lifts or long horizontal stretches that may cause large volumes of liquid to accumulate and form blockages.
- Clean joints and minimal internal resistance help ensure the patented Vacuumarator® pump can move wastewater efficiently through the entire system.
- When needed, accumulating tanks can support flow, but they must be placed where they can drain correctly.
- Correct pipe design and installation reduce energy use, protect components from wear, and create a reliable, long-lasting system.

How pipe installation affect system performance
Well-designed pipe installations in vacuum systems, prevent fluid build-up, maintain correct pressure balance, and keep the system operating efficiently.
Vacuum piping uses smaller, lighter pipes that can run horizontally or even upwards, offering far greater flexibility than traditional gravity systems. This makes vacuum systems ideal for ships, buildings, supermarkets, as well as mobile installations for festivals and camps.
Our vacuum systems combine hygiene, reliability, and low water usage with the freedom to design flexible pipe layouts. Eller: Our vacuum systems are hygienic, reliable, and water-saving, and allow for highly flexible pipe layouts.
