Installation of PEX connection with crimp tool

Installation of mechanical screwed PEX connection with PEX crimp tools in the following order: * Cut PEX pipe perpendicular to its axis, leaving no burrs * Wear crimp nut and locking the cutting ring on the end of the PEX pipe * Insert the PEX tube inside the sleeve, it should go there all the [...]

Floors are concrete solutions

Concrete floor PEX radiant heating with defined as “wet” performance of floor PEX radiant heating system. It is very important that the concrete was not air bubbles, and especially around PEX pipe. There are several methods of laying underfloor PEX radiant heating with a concrete solution. Minimum thickness of concrete above the mud tubes should [...]

Standard insulation foam (certified by the influence of sound) may be subjected to a load of 20 ÷ 36 kg / m 2, ie polystyrene PS 20 and PS 30. Other types of isolation, admitted in terms of permeability of sound, can withstand loads of up to 5 kg/m2. Hydronic heating floor PEX radiant heating [...]

PEX radiant heating

In the design of underfloor PEX radiant heating for a given quantity of PEX radiant heating surface, ie floor surfaces are counting parameters of PEX radiant heating water, given the need for heat in the room temperature resistance of the layers of the floor to accepted values? Calculation of floor radiant heating – a system [...]

PEX radiant heating system

It should be remembered that the heated floors give warmth in the downward direction (approx. 10%). This heat flow should be considered when determining the total flow of water in the PEX radiant heating system, as well as the selection of the heat source. In areas with particularly high demand in the warmth associated with [...]
