Product Q&A
100 QuestionsQ: Why are there never any 1/2" 300ft version of the AquaPEX Blue? Every time I come to SupplyHouse, there's only 100ft versions. The red has 1/2" 300ft versions. Buying 3 100ft versions and wasting $50 extra dollars in the current economy is no bueno. C'mon guys. Do better.

Q: Can Pex be used outdoors if painted and drained during winter months?
Asked by Jack 7 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- Supplyhouse.com TeamPEX can be used outdoors but depending on where you live and the temperatures, it could freeze under 32° unless it is buried below the freeze level of your area.
Q: can pex be used with closed cell spray foam insulation?
Asked by tad644 10 years ago
Add your answer
I have used closed cell foam on the pipes about a year ago. (On my on house) everything has been fine for now. I don't think any chemical reaction could happen after the foam cures. Good luck.
Q: A previous question answer stated aquapex should not be used with chlorinated water. All municipal water in America is chlorinated. Does this mean I must filter the city water to remove chlorine prior to running it into the aquapex pipe?

Verified Reply- Supplyhouse StaffNo that level of chlorine is OK, but not pools, spas ETC ETC.
Q: Why does 1.25" PEX inside dimension look significantly smaller than 1.25" Sch40 PVC and What is the difference in flow rate? I have about 15GPM coming out of my well. Is the 1.25" PEX adequate?
Asked by Zach 11 years ago

Verified Reply- Supplyhouse Staffthe ID of that pex is 1.054, it has a max flow rate of 11.2 GPM, you will need an 1 1/2" pex.
Q: Will chlorinated water do damage to the interior composition of the pipe
Asked by Al 11 years ago

Q: Does the AQUAPEX white (clear) coil have the same quality with blue or red? and is the "grade A" lead free? does it qualify California code?
Asked by JC 11 years ago

dont live in calif and do not know the codes. all colors i think are the same. Garland Sonsel
The white AquaPex tubing should be the same quality as the red and blue. The oolor is used to help keep hot and cold water lines separate so there won't be any mixing of these lines. The white can be used for any system even hot and cold water lines. Contact the manufacturer about "grade A" and if it meets California code. Doug

1) All AquaPEX is the same quality regardless of color. The blue and red are optional colors added to clear AquaPEX during manufacturing to make it easy for the plumber to differentiate between hot and cold while plumbing a building. Color-blind plumbers should just use clear for everything ;) 2) All AquaPEX is absolutely lead free. It is the best tubing for drinking water ever devised by man. Far better than copper, PVC or CPVC. 3) All AquaPEX meets all California codes that I am familiar with. It might not meet code if you were to use it for something like Fire Protection. But for potable water/pressure applications, it meets every code. Ken Morley
Uponor tubing have same quality, colored tubing used where necessary, blue for cold water red for hot water. AquaPEX is crosslinked polyethylene (plastic) there is no metal in the tubing. This is one of the best quality product for potable water. No one made better crosslinked polyethylene then Uponor die to unique manufacturing process. In regards of CA law I cannot help You. Sent from my BlackBerry 10 smartphone on the Rogers network.
Color should not matter for quality ratings. In my plumbing project, I used red for hot, blue for cold, and white for drinking water that bypassed the water softener. AFAIK, there's no lead in any of this - piping or fittings. None of it is metal. Well the fittings are copper but other than that nothing is metal. I live in Minnesota so I don't know about California code. But I don't see why it would be a problem. Your local building inspector is probably the best source for the code question.
The white is less UV-resistant than the blue or red: "Uponor AquaPEX White and Wirsbo hePEX piping carry a 5106 marking, indicating a UV-resistance period of 1 month. Uponor AquaPEX Red and Blue tubing (typically used for plumbing applications) carry a 5206 marking, indicating a UV-resistance period of 3 months."

Q: Can this product be used outdoors to feed water supply to a cabin from a fresh water spring?
Asked by Jack of all trades 11 years ago

Should be ok. But remember this is photo sensitive so it would need to be screened. Sent from my iPad
Pex degrades when exposed to sunlight. It should be sleeved when used underground (according to Wikipedia, which also states it is vulnerable to certain plant eating insects).
PEX cannot be exposed to UV, so it needs to be buried or completely covered. As long as it is not exposed to the sun, it is fine.
Yes, this product can be used outdoors as long as it is protected from UV (sunlight) and is at least minimally protected from freezing. If buried, it should be in a sand bed to prevent sharp objects from wearing a hole in the buing. The tubing will tolerate occasional freezing and thawing, but should be insulated and buried deeply enough that freezing will not become a regular occurrence. Exposure to UV will seriously degrade tubing strength. The tubing should not be exposed to UV other than during installation (no more than 30 days) and the ends above ground should transition to PVC, copper or some other material.
This product can be used outdoor in above freezing temperature with UV light protection or in ground . Compression fittings available from Uponor. List expensive tubing You can use is 75psi rating polyethylene with red line Sent from my BlackBerry 10 smartphone on the Rogers network.
It could be, but it is suspetable to UV from the sun. Garland Sonsel
yes, but it can freeze if exposed to below freezing temperatures. That won't hurt the aquapex but could damage the fittings that are not able to expand from freezing water. Buried is no problem though.
Q: Is aquapex (expansion ring type) suitable for direct burial or does it need to be protected with a sleeve, rap, or cover of some kind. Should it be placed in a bed of sand and then covered over.
Asked by Alan C. 11 years ago
Add your answer
PEX tubing is approved for direct burial outdoors, a practice most often necessary when running a water supply line to a house. PEX, since it can expand, resists freezing more effectively than rigid pipe, but PEX can still burst if water freezes in a line. As a result, it’s a must to bury the tubing below the frost line. The depth of the frost line in a given area can be obtained by contacting the municipality or local water company. *Although an unbroken line of PEX would be ideal, dezincification-resistant brass PEX fittings or plastic PEX fittings should be used in areas known to have aggressive water or soil when a fitting is necessary. Stainless steel clamp rings are a better choice than copper crimp rings due to their increased corrosion resistance.* Residential water supply lines generally use 3/4” pipe (occasionally 1”). SupplyHouse <http://www.supplyhouse.com/> carries PEX-B tubing <http://www.supplyhouse.com/PEX-Tubing-516000> in these sizes, as well as PEX-A rated AquaPEX <http://www.supplyhouse.com/AquaPEX-Tubing-517000> and pre-insulated AquaPEX <http://www.supplyhouse.com/Pre-Insulated-AquaPEX-Tubing-11448000>. Sleeving the buried PEX (in PVC, for example) shields the tubing and can make potential repairs easier. Embedding PEX in sand protects it from any rocks in the soil. Always check with all applicable local codes prior to installation. (from pex supply web site
Rarely use Propex rings underground. Red stripe polyethylene tubing with stainless steel clamps will do at lower cost. If use Propex underground composite fitting ( not brass) my first choice, clay or sand without stone around tubing, brass compression adapters for different brand, types of tubing or pipes, electric PVC elbow when tubing go from horizontal to vertical, same PVC to protect from concrete and metal. For connections in the concrete slab band tubing down under concrete, connect and band up in to the slab. For outdoor boiler I use Uponor insulated tubing (very expensive but excellent quality). In general don't run any tubing too close to freezing zone and lay down tubing in curved not straight line ( any plastic expand and retract with pressure difference)Thanks
Shoud sleeve it. If you need to go a ways should ck something different.
It really shouldn't matter what connection system you at using - you shouldn't be covering any joints as they are the most likely point to develop issues. I have seen direct bury done both ways - with a shroud and without. If you live in area with ground shift you will need a shroud otherwise it is somewhat optional- you are just running the risk of shorting the usable life of the pex.
AquaPex can be buried directly in a bed of sand. It must not be exposed to sunlight, so you have to transition to some other material where it enters the ground if outside. While AquaPex is not adversely affected by freezing once or twice, it could degrade if frozen and thawed repeatedly. There are versions of AquaPex that are pre-insulated with foam that can solve the freezing problem (if buried deep enough) and don't require the sand bed.
depends on soil type and what you are doing on surface, i would not drive over it. Any thing less than gravel should be ok. If you are getting inspection I would call and ask
Q: Are those AQUAPEX tubing made in China? if not, where?
Asked by JC 11 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- SupplyHouse StaffThe AquaPEX tubing that is sold in the United States is made at Uponor's factory in Minnesota.
JC: You did not indicate where you would be purchasing tubing, so this answer assumes that you would purchase somewhere in North America. According to the Uponor web site, AquaPEX tubing sold in North America is manufactured in the United States. They may have other manufacturing facilities around the world devoted to those markets. I know that AquaPex is very popular in rapidly developing countries and so I would not be surprised to find that Uponor also has factories in China, India, etc. for those markets. But if you purchase in North America, your product will be manufactured in the US. I can't say enough good things about AquaPex. I will never go back to copper or CPVC piping systems. Ken Morley

probably not, but I don't know for sure. Most thermoplastic tubing is made in the US. Garland Sonsel
