PEX: Safe for Plumbing

PEX tubing for plumbing continues to become more popular. PEX is lightweight and flexible. Running the lines through tight spaces is easy, making PEX a great choice for retrofit applications.



PEX designed for plumbing (i.e. without an oxygen barrier) meets all necessary codes for potable water use. The materials in PEX tubing are chemically inert. They will not react with or contaminate water. Neither will fittings: all PEX fittings are mechanical, and do not use glues, chemicals, adhesives, or cements.
