Uponor First PEX Manufacturer to Offer up to 2″ Purple Pipe for Reclaimed Water Systems

To further meet the growing demand for sustainable building systems, Uponor North America is the first in the industry to offer a PEX purple pipe in sizes up to 2 inches for commercial and residential reclaimed water applications. In addition to its existing ½-, ¾- and 1-inch sizes, Uponor AquaPEX Reclaimed Water pipe is now available in 1¼-, 1½- and 2-inch sizes as well.

The new offering comes in response to a growing need for water reuse systems in drought-stricken areas around the country. Offering a reclaimed water pipe in larger sizes gives professionals the opportunity to design and install even more reclaimed water applications to help conserve fresh-water resources.

Uponor’s extended offering, which is available in 300-foot coils for ½-, ¾- and 1-inch sizes and 10-foot and 20-foot straight lengths for 1-, 1¼-, 1½- and 2-inch sizes, provides all the benefits of Uponor AquaPEX that plumbing engineers and contractors have come to rely on — flexibility, durability, corrosion resistance, a 20-year proven history in plumbing, a 25-year limited warranty and one simple ASTM F1960 ProPEX expansion connection system that does not require any torches, glues, solvents or gauges.
