Frequently Asked Questions
- What tools do I need to install this fitting? Press fittings require specialized press jaws of the correct type (commonly labelled B, F or TH depending on the system) matching the size and type of the fitting - without the right tool the joint cannot be made or checked.
- How do I know the joint has been pressed correctly? Quality press fittings have a pressing indicator (e.g. a sealing O-ring that leaks if the pressing is incomplete) - before embedding the pipe in a wall or screed, a pressure test of the entire system must always be carried out.
- Can a pressed joint be disassembled afterwards? No, unlike a screwed (compression) fitting, a pressed joint is permanent and removing it requires cutting out the fitting and replacing it with a new one.
- Must installation be carried out by a professional? Yes, pressing fittings requires professional skill and correctly calibrated tools - we recommend using a qualified heating/plumbing installer, especially for joints that will be embedded in a wall or screed with no possibility of later inspection.

Vision
To make life easier for our clients, our clients' customers and our employees, thanks to our ability to be constantly innovative.
Mission
To design and manufacture advanced hydronic solutions that reduce installation complexity and energy consumption.
“Made in Italy” adds value
IVAR has been producing heating and plumbing system components since 1985: valves for heating bodies, direct heat metering modules, heat cost allocators, pipes and fittings, substations for heating systems, distribution manifolds, radiant panel systems, and components for solar and geothermal systems. And it’s all “Made in Italy”.
Over 200 people are employed at our manufacturing facilities in Prevalle (in northern Italy’s Brescia province). The site has been designed to streamline our many production and operational stages.
The Italian headquarters also acts as a hub for the wider IVAR Group, set up with the goal of distributing products beyond Italy’s borders. The group now has 11 branches, in Australia, Belgium, China, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, the United States and Tunisia.
Know How
Research, development and numerous laboratory tests guarantee that our clients’ requests can be translated into new high-efficiency products.
The stages required for production take place internally, beginning with hot forming, which is carried out at our subsidiary Valmon Stampati. Our continuous implementation of projects under the Industry 4.0 initiative also allows us to take full advantage of new releases in technology and IT to improve our manufacturing efficiency.
As a company, IVAR is constantly evolving. Every day, we invest in strengthening our products, in improving our production processes and in attaining new patents and certifications.
