  • Page 13 Fixing points and surface mounting For surface mount installations, it is recommended that straight lengths of pipe be used for convenience (ALPEX-DUO and IVAR-APEX B). The maximum unsupported distance ”S”, for surface-mount pipework in walls or ceilings installation, is given in the following table.
