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.
