Doug Vetter, owner of Vetter Plumbing in Longview, Wash., was recently featured on Mechanical Hub's Appetite for Construction podcast. He was thrilled to share some of his stories about his love for plumbing and Uponor.
Beginning in early 2020, supply-chain disruptions and unprecedented construction-materials demand resulted in an influx of F1960 engineered polymer (EP) fittings from various manufacturers and suppliers located around the globe.
When the Olson family's baseboard radiant heating system broke, they needed an efficient way to heat their basement without disrupting the existing concrete slab or significantly increasing the floor height in the 905 sq. ft. basement.
We have a long-standing reputation for producing high-quality products, and we’ve spent decades demonstrating that Uponor PEX-a pipe and ProPEX® systems are the superior and safest choice on the market. Due to our success, there are now numerous imitations on the market, claiming to meet the same rigorous standards. Regrettably, using these lookalike products in your project is far riskier and carries greater consequences.
Developed by Uponor, this new solution takes the guesswork and freelancing out of piping installations. Each kit, which includes all the needed ProPEX® fittings, adapters, valves, and rings, is delivered to the job site — one kit per room or apartment — along with a material list and an isometric layout for the installer to follow, helping to minimize mistakes and maximize efficiency.
