Pex-a Or Pex-b: Uncovering The Key Differences
PEX-A vs PEX-B: What's the Difference
🔧 Welcome to our comprehensive comparison between Zurn PEX tubing and Uponor PEX pipe - two game-changers in the plumbing industry! 🔧
In this video, we delve deep into the realm of PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) piping, and the unique characteristics that set Zurn and Uponor apart. We explore their manufacturing process, standards compliance, warranties, fittings, and of course, cost.
Zurn PEX tubing, manufactured via the silane method, utilizes a chemical catalyst for cross-linking polyethylene molecules. Uponor PEX pipe, however, leverages the Engel method, involving a peroxide catalyst. 💡
While both Zurn and Uponor's products comply with ASTM F876/F877 and NSF/ANSI 61 standards, Uponor goes a step further meeting the higher standards of NSF/ANSI 14. Curious about warranties? Both brands offer a 25-year warranty, with Uponor's being limited. 📃
We also cover the subject of fittings. Both Zurn and Uponor offer proprietary fittings designed to pair specifically with their PEX products, but worry not! Some third-party fittings may be compatible with both.
And last but not least, the ever-important topic of cost. Though prices for both Zurn and Uponor PEX piping can vary based on length, diameter, location, and supplier, Uponor PEX pipe is generally found to be slightly more expensive than Zurn PEX tubing. 💰
The choice between Zurn PEX tubing and Uponor PEX pipe often boils down to personal preference and project-specific needs. Both are respected products with proven performance in the industry. We highly recommend consulting with a licensed plumber or contractor to determine the best choice for your application.
