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.

Uponor TotalFit™ is an innovative push-to-connect fitting designed to simplify residential repair, remodel, and re-pipe projects. Manufactured with professional-grade engineered polymer (EP) and a patent-pending design, TotalFit™ provides greater value for residential projects with the same versatility and speed as brass push-to-connect fittings for use in PEX, PE-RT, CPVC, and copper piping systems.

When Jason Gaspard, owner and project manager at Select Mechanical Services, was looking to finish the basement of his Maple Grove, MN, home, he knew he wanted radiant heating in the space. He had heard about the new Uponor Xpress Trak radiant panel system and decided that was the best installation method for the job.  

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.

Today, Uponor North America celebrated the grand opening of its newly constructed Uponor Experience Center located at its regional headquarters in Apple Valley, Minn.
