Questions & Answers
What is the country of manufacture?
Can it be used with expansion fittings
Thank you for your question. Expansion fittings are designed to be used only with PEX-A pipe and are not compatible with PEX-B pipe. If you're looking for the same size and length in PEX-A, please search for part number EPPB512. If you have any additional questions, we're happy to help.
Can this be installed underground?
Thank you for your question. Yes, our PEX-B pipe is approved for direct burial and can be used in underground applications when installed in accordance with local plumbing and building codes.
Will this pipe work with pvc cement?
No, PVC cement should not be used on PEX pipe.
What type of fitting is required to connect to pex water line to the residents existing water meter?Dave
To connect a PEX water line to an existing residential water meter, the fitting you need depends on what is coming out of the meter and local code.
This Pex is outside on a covered patio and on a covered deck it could get some sun in the morning is there something the line could be wrapped with?
The pipe can be wrapped with a UV-resistant foam pipe insulation — easy and inexpensive. UV-resistant split pvc conduit or pipe chase — durable and clean-looking; excellent for decks/patios. Flexible UV-rated sleeve/tubing — often used in exposed plumbing runs. Here are a couple great options.
Is that id or od
It's the inside diameter
With this tubing can I use the current shut off valve and include it with the insulation of the new lines
