A new study from the Plastic Pipe and Fittings Association (PPFA), conducted by Drexel University, points to rightsizing piping systems to optimize flow velocity and improve water quality.

Hybrid polymer piping systems combine PEX-a and Schedule 80 CPVC to provide a cost-effective, corrosion-resistant solution.

You may have heard that “Not all PEX pipe is the same” or “Not all F1960 fittings are the same”, but you might be surprised to know that fact also pertains to full-port ball valves as well.

Stephanie Radel, director of Hot and Cold Water Supply Americas at GF Building Flow Solutions (GF) , joined Plumbing and Mechanical’s And So It Flows podcast to discuss Uponor hybrid piping solutions.
