F.W. Webb Adds Uponor PEX-a to
Portfolio. |
F.W. Webb Company has added Uponor PEX-a piping and fittings to
their plumbing and heating product lineup. PEX-a is a flexible
plastic tubing used for commercial and residential potable
water, hydronic heating, radiant cooling and heating, fire
protection and snow and ice melting applications. Backed by over
50 years of proven performance, Uponor PEX-a is the leading
choice among contractors today.
Unlike copper and CPVC systems, PEX resists corrosion, pitting
and scaling. Featuring a flexible and durable design, Uponor PEX-a
piping systems can expand up to three times its original diameter,
making it the most freeze-resistant piping available. It offers
fewer connections and potential leak points for greater installation
efficiency, water conservation and more affordable material costs.
Uponor also has one of the most comprehensive offerings on the
market with PEX-a piping available in sizes up to 3" for potable
applications and 4” for closed-loop hydronic applications.
