Benefits of Geberit Silent-db20 

Sound insulation ribs on the Geberit Silent-db20 fittings

The high inherent weight of Geberit Silent-db20 pipes and fittings means that their natural vibrations are reduced and any sound is noticeably absorbed.

Special sound insulation ribs reduce noise development at the impact zones.

This makes Geberit Silent-db20 a strong choice for stacks and connection pipes in building drainage systems with high sound insulation requirements.

Sound insulation reports for various construction scenarios have been prepared in cooperation with the Fraunhofer Institute for Building Physics (IBP). These are also available for Geberit Silent-db20.

Connection technologies for Geberit Silent-db20 

Geberit Silent-db20 can be installed using different connection technologies

Whether using fast electrofusion welding or butt welding, Geberit Silent-db20 pipes and fittings can be securely connected using three different methods. In some countries, clamping connectors may also be used. A range of Geberit tools and accessories is available to ensure easy processing.

Double-flange expansion sockets and double sleeve couplings help compensate for the thermal linear expansion of Geberit Silent-db20 pipes and fittings. This allows the system to accommodate significant variations in operating temperatures. The EPDM seals play a key role in the long service life of the drainage system.

Geberit Silent-db20 is also suitable for prefabrication, enabling faster and more efficient workflows that are independent of progress on site. This significantly shortens the on-site installation time.

Geberit Silent-db20 is the ideal piping system for embedding connection pipes in concrete slabs, allowing for greater freedom in bathroom design. When working with concrete, non-positive connections are essential.

Tension-free installation despite axial offset Geberit Silent-db20 Offset

It is not always possible to avoid inaccuracies during construction, but when discharge pipe connection points are not perfectly aligned, this can cost plumbers both time and patience. With the Geberit Silent-db20 Offset fitting, stacks can be connected efficiently and tension-free, even when alignment is less than perfect.

Benefits of the Geberit Silent-db20 Offset:

  • Tension-free installation for axial offsets of up to 10 cm
  • Familiar, easy installation
  • Reduced installation time compared to using two 45° bends
  • Flexible adjustment with a single product
  • Improved sound insulation compared to conventional connection correction methods
