If you are currently using old galvanized plumbing in your home, it may be time to replace it. The going option for repiping your home is PEX. But what is PEX, and should you use it in your home?

What is Uponor PEX?

Uponor PEX plumbing systems is a flexible, durable plastic piping product called cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) tubing used to distribute the water throughout your home. PEX tubing is a clean, non-toxic, and extremely durable piping product that will not pit, scale or corrode. And although not a big problem for Houstonians, it even helps resist freeze damage.

There are three different types of PEX tubing: PEX-a, PEX-b, and PEX-c. Uponor manufactures PEX-a tubing is considered the superior type of PEX in the industry because the crosslinking is done during the manufacturing process when polyethylene is in its amorphic state (above the crystalline melting point). Because of this, the degree of crosslinking reaches around 85% (higher than PEX-b or PEX-c), resulting in a more uniform, more flexible product with no weak links in the molecular chain. We Do Repipes is a Uponor Certified Installer and we only use superior PEX-a tubing for all repipes. If you are considering a repipe for your home and have additional questions about using PEX in your Houston area home, call to speak to an expert, 832-819-8337.

According to the manufacturer, Uponor AquaPEX tubing for drinking water is held to the plumbing industry's highest standards.

"In addition to testing and certification at NSF International, Canadian Standards Association (CSA), and Underwriters Laboratories (UL), Uponor PEX tubing has been tested and approved for potable-water applications by the most demanding agencies in the world, including DVWG-Germany, KIWA-Netherlands, CTSB-France, and BSI-Great Britain. Toxicity extraction testing performed in accordance with ANSI/NSF 61 "Drinking Water System Components – Health Effects" verifies Uponor PEX tubing does not leach potentially harmful substances into the drinking water." - https://www.uponor-usa.com
