Why are there Cast Iron and Bronze Pumps?

Cast Iron Taco pumps are designed for use in hydronic heating systems. The most popular of these is the Taco 007 Pump. Bronze pumps are designed for use with hot/cold water systems. For purposes of radiant heat, if you are using a cast iron Taco Pump, you must have an oxygen barrier for your pex tubing. This would include Wirsbo HePEX and ThermaPEX Barrier Tubing.

What is the difference between the Wirsbo SSC Fittings and the Wirsbo ProPEX Fittings?

The Wirsbo SSC fittings and the Wirsbo Propex Fittings both accomplish the same thing. They make connections using pex fittings and pex tubing. The SSC Fittings are clamp style fittings and require the SSC Tool and SSC Clamps. When using the Propex fittings the tubing is expanded using an expander tool. Propex rings are needed to secure the connections.
