Pexheat Announces the Watts Radiant R-flex Tubing System

Large Diameter Highly Flexible Insulated PEX Tubing

Pexheat.com is proud to announce the release of the R-flex Insulated Tubing System by Watts Radiant. The art of Simplicity .

If you have ever tried to bury a run of supply tubing underground, you have come up with the dilemma of how to keep from losing all the heat carried by that pipe. Many of us just used a piece of drainage pipe as a piece of conduit to keep the dirt and moisture off the pipe and hoped for the best. Unfortunately if that pipe was bringing heat in from a Wood Boiler or running between two buildings, that supply piping lost a lot of heat into the ground. It was also quite tough to snake a piece of 2 in. PEX through a corrugated drainage pipe.

These are just some of the uses of the R-Flex system.

• Hydronic heating
• Hydronic snow melting
• District heating
• Commercial and process piping
• Geothermal
• Agricultural piping
• Biomass heat sources
• Wood-fired boilers
• Solar
• Cooling towers & chilled water systems

Watts Radiant has made the job of buried supply piping Fast and Easy. With the release of the R-flex Insulated Tubing System, the installer has:

• maximum flexibility in his pipe
• superior insulation ability with several layers of cross-linked polyethylene foam
• exceptionally high durability with a double walled outer casing
• lighter weight than rigid piping systems
• easy installation with the R-flex compression fittings (no crimping tool!!), caps and sleeves

The R-flex system is very easy to install with shrink caps for terminal installations, water proof elbows, tees and inspection chambers for secure reliable underground connections. It also includes a full line of compression fittings for reliable connections without an expensive crimping tool.

R-flex pre-insulated piping comes in single and double (supply & return) tubing runs. It also comes in 1 in., 1.5 in., 2 in., 2.5 in., 3 in., 3.5 in. and 4 in. sizes!!! You can purchase in pre-cut lengths or bulk coils.
